IRT & BMT Open Platform EL Gate Cars (MORE pics)

Here are some latest photos taken of a few of my many O-Scale IRT (Interborough Rapid Transit) wooden Elevated Division Open End Platform Gate cars. These type cars served all the four original (2, 3, 6, 9 Avenues) Manhattan EL's, and the IRT Flushing and Astoria EL's, and parts of the Woodlawn-Jerome and White Plains Road EL's in the Bronx. The last of these IRT "EL" Division open end platform gate cars ran  up thru April 1953 running by then solely on the IRT Dyre Avenue then-Shuttle Line since 1941.

They are seen here on this Thread page operating on my O-Scale N Y City Model Transit System "EL" Layout. 

For much more photos (and videos)  -- here are links to four of my photos websites for this Layout;

Anyone else here have models of and/or operate these type early era IRT (or other system) cars on your layouts ?
