"There has to be a latch because the crew has to have some way of passing between the cab and the passenger cabin. You can see the latch in the photograph of 802's interior just above the left aisle seat. The fact that we can see the hinges of the bulkhead door on its right side indicates that it should be designed to swing 180 or more degrees. The cab door on the half cab models should already be designed to swing nearly 180 degrees to allow the car to be operated with the cab door open and stowed out of the way. The addition of the bulkhead just puts another point at which it can be latched."Yes it has a latch there but not where it would be stowed. See the top pic in this post: http://www.subchat.com/read.asp?Id=983206 Ther would be no couches the c/r's should be doing their job, if not SEPTA needs to warn their workers. SEPTA has had bad relations with their unions and both sides need to act better. But, they should have been sought for their input on going from full width cabs to half width cabs. "six seats being rendered useless" Wrong they are still seats and can people can choose to sit there or not. Only 1 cab per train should be full width so you have the two on the cab side of the partition and the three on the other side. Either way I think we have to agree to disagree. We can debate all we want but in the end SEPTA is the one who will have the final say. |
