View from a dutch door
Title:  View from a dutch door
Description:  One of the joys of riding trains in the hand me down days of the 60s and 70s was that there were still a lot of cars that had been cast off from long distance trains. Most of these had dutch doors, which you were permitted to ride in, though Im sure the practice was officially frowned on. Riding in the vesibule did give a great view, such as this from a New York bound train, of a Bay Head train behind a GG 1.
