The constructional details of the new design may follow in large part the construction disclosed in copending application Railway Car, Serial No. 734,955, filed March 15, 1947, by inventors Walter B. Dean and Albert G. Dean, issued on March 18, 1952, under Patent No. 2,589,997.
A car according to the invention is, of course, more expensive than an ordinary coach car or a car with a short-length dome, as disclosed in the aforesaid application. In the final analysis, however, the expense for a train equipped with the new cars is about within the same range as the expense'for a train composed of ordinary cars and a number of short-length dome cars.
Then-new design presents additional advantages.
Firstly-For the short-length dome car, it was found desirable to maintain a certain ratio between non-revenue dome seats and seats at the normal level. In cars of the new design all seats at the high level may, of course, be revenue seats or a much smaller number of these dome cars may be used for a train of a certain length mainly composed of ordinary cars.
Secondly.-Al1 dome or double-deck cars have the advantage that they give on the upper deck much quieter riding to the passengers because noticeable advantage becomes available to a much greater number of passengers in a car of g the new design than in trains with a relatively small number of dome seats as afiorded by the short-length dome cars interspersed in a majority of regular cars.
The invention is susceptible to modifications and adaptations without departing from its basic concept. For instance, the side aisles may be lowered one step with respect to the main portion of the floor above the trucks, in which case, the side aisles would be connected by a 2151516 step with the floor of the respective vesti- What is claimed is:
1. A railway car of cross-sectional dimensions keeping substantially within established clearance lines, comprising: end walls; side walls; a roof; normal-level floors, at about the fioor level of customary single-deck passenger cars, in
and adjacent the location of trucks for supporting the car; vestibules at the ends of the car provided with passage doors of standard height and dimensions in said end walls; a compartment with a low-level floor between said truck locations at a level below said normal-level fioors; a high-level floor extending substantially over the full length of the car from the vestibule at the one end to the vestibule at the other end thereof, said high-level floor being at full standing height above said low-level floor, at less than standing height above said normal-level floors, and at full standing height below said roof; transverse partition walls interconnecting said side walls, said low-level floor and said highlevel fioor in the meeting regions of said normallevel floors and said low-level floor; longitudinal partitions spaced from one of said side walls and extending between said normal-level floors and said high-level floor and providing side aisles I communicating with said vestibules and the com- 30 partment with the low-level floor, said side aisles projecting upwardly beyond the high-level floor by upward extensions of their longitudinal par-' tition walls and by raised ceilings so as to provide full standing height in the side aisles; steps connecting said side aisles with said low-level floor; at least one entrance door in one of the side walls such as at the location of one of said vestibules; and at least one stair leading to said high-level floor.

4. A railway car of cross-sectional dimensions keeping substantially within established clearance lines, comprising: end walls provided with passage doors of standard height and dimensions as to permit communication with adjoining ordinary single-deck cars; side walls; a roof; end floors, in and adjacent the location of trucks for supporting the car, at a level suflicient for clearing such trucks, vestibules at the ends of the car in communication with said passage doors; a compartment with a low-level floor be tween said truck locations at a level below said end floors; a high-level floor overlying said lowlevel floor and extending therebeyond in the longitudinal direction of the car, said high-level floor being at full standing height above said low-level floor but less than standing height above said end floors; transverse partition walls interconnecting said side walls, said low-level floor and said high-level floor in the meeting regions of said end floors and said low-level floor; longitudinal partitions spaced from one of said side walls and extending between said end floors 5 and said high-level floor and providing side aisles communicating with said vestibules and the compartment with the low-level floor; said side aisles having projections extending upwardly beyond the high-level floor to full standing height; a single row of seats on said high-level floor between a center aisle thereon and said projections of said side aisles, and double rows of seats between said side walls and center aisle in regions remote from said side aisles; steps connecting said side aisles with said low-level floor; and at least one stair connecting one of said low-level and end floors with said high-level floor.
5. A railway car of cross-sectional dimensions keeping substantially within established clearance lines, comprising: end walls provided with passage doors of standard height and dimensions as to permit communication with adjoining ordinary single-deck cars; side walls; a roof; end floors in and adjacent the location of trucks for supporting the car at a level sufficient for clearing such trucks; vestibules at the ends of the car in communication with said passage doors; a compartment with a low-level floor between said truck locations at a level below said end floors; a high-level floor overlying said low-level floor and extending therebeyond in the longitudinal direction of the car, said high-level floor being at full standing height above said low-level floor but less than standing height above said end floors; transverse partition walls interconnecting said side walls, said low-level floor and said high-level fioor in the meeting regions of said end floors and said low-level floor; longitudinal partitions spaced from one of said side walls and extending between said end floors and said high-level floor and providing side aisles communicating with said vestibules and the compartment with the low-level floor; said side aisles having projections extending upwardly beyond the high-level floor to full standing height; steps connecting said side aisles with said low-level floor; and stairs interconnecting said side aisles with said high-level floor being enclosed by partition walls forming a staircase, said stairs and staircase being arranged directly inwardly adjacent said side aisle.
