That'd take care of the gapping problem. You could always install a section of overhead third rail as was done at Grand Central Terminal many years ago. The electric motors assigned to GCT all had a small pantograph mounted on the roof to prevent gapping. The first half of the FL-9 order had a small roof mounted pan as well. Larry, RedbirdR33
