How many components did they have to add to those cars to make them MUDC other than door engines? That
seems like an awful lot of extra weight. I know they had center doors added, but their vestibule doors remained
(brutally) maunally operated.
That was only the case with the Deckroofs and a handful of the
standard Hi-V cars. The rest of the Hi-Vs were converted to full
MUDC operation ca 1922.
