[I remember the terrible heat on the IRT in the summer. John Lindsey who was the mayor at that time said that the IRT couldn't be air conditioned because the profile of the car was smaller than the
IND/BMT and there was no room for the equipment. What a jerk!]

He also conveniently forgot that PATH/H&M had been able to air condition cars that were similar in size to the IRT's.
