Roof hatch detail on chair cars.
Close cropping of a 1958 shot of the Grand Canyon at Trinidad, Colorado showing rich roof hatch detail on these chair cars. Note that the air duct, for some reason, is on the opposite side on chair car 1170. This may be a class difference between it and the 3000 series at the right. [Photo by R.S.
