I knew right away the cars would be problematical. I heard that when they first started being delivered the fiberglass fronts were cracking.

My first ride on them I had no problem with the slant design, but when I saw the cars added and you crossed in between cars, somebody was going down. Kids would sit on the little ledge in between cars while the train was in motion. I'm shocked Raymond Lowey didn't figure out how his slant design would come out once the units were added together.
