I know...
Hence why i made the comment about them not fitting even though they are the same length as IRT rolling stock. In fact, they had to be tested on the now defunct elevated lines due to their width before the first tunnel was complete. As i recall the elevated lines were originally steam hauled 2-4 cars, since they didnt make a steam loco narrow enough for a typical trolly line they came up with a compromise loading gauge.
At least that's what i can make out from the stuff i've seen/read.
Perhaps take a look at some of my other posts before assuming i'm stating something thinking one thing & the topic being another. I've been on all these different systems between here in pa, newark, jersey city and nyc and out onto long island. :cool:
