To be fair, I can't think of any railcars that were built with celerestory roofs after roughly the 1930s.The LIRR's MP54's were built with rounded roofs despite not being air conditioned, for example. The streamliner era made all clerestory roofs look old-fashioned. Even today, when you look at RR pictures, they are just about the easiest way to spot older rolling stock. So I can't fault the TA for ditching them. |
