Just curious--does anyone have an opinion as to the superiority of the gallery
type commuter coach (as used by Chicago railroads) vs. the multi-level coach
as used by NJ Transit, LIRR, etc.?

That is, which are preferred by passengers, which have faster lo
ding/unloading, which are preferred by crews, ride quality, ease of
maintenance, etc.?

(In my own opinion, I prefer single level cars like NJT's Arrow MUs.  I've
never ridden a gallery car, but I feel the multi-levels, while popular with
many, have some disadvantages).
