But, all subway cars purchased after WW II       had fluorescent lighting. In 1957 there was a reasonable chance       one would get a newer car that had it. So, the movie was not       incorrect in using more modern interiors.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
