Today's subway cars in New York do not have vestibules; i. e., enclosed end platforms with doors for passenger loading and unloading. The IRT Composites, Hi-Vs, and Lo-Vs thru #5653 were the only subway cars with such vestibules. These are not to be confused with the full-width operator's cabs found on the R-44, R-46, R-68, and reworked R-62 cars.
