As always, Jordan, beautiful detailing. Your lovely wife is going to have all the creature comforts back there the next time you are out for a night drive and you have to replace another belt!

It must have been interesting dealing with interior lighting in that WIRE-3 box at night, as getting a canvas cover light tight must have been a challenge. In the WIRE-5, the two lamps ran along the longitudinal centreline of the box roof, with one lamp over the Operators seat and the other just behind the Cypher Clerk. Both were independently switched and a pair of cutout switches at the rear door of the box and in the Charging Cupboard killed the interior lighting if either of those doors were opened. I am guessing your WIRE-3 lamps operate the same way, minus the cutout switches.

David
