Isn't it interesting: the BMT used articulated rolling stock into the 1960s and one of the reasons cited for not continuing with articulated cars was the difficulty of maintaining the large inseparable train sets. In the 50s and 60s we had married pairs of two cars, then we had the 75 footers, and now we have train sets of 5 60 foot cars. What's the deal? How is this so different from articulated sets? |
