   My favorite was and always will be the BMT Standards.  Many years ago   
   I had a dream in which the San Francisco BART system was unloading new   
   cars and they were --- shiny new BMT Standards!  I woke up in tears!   
      
   My second choice is the D-type Triplex.  You can guess my era.
