The car at 0:43 is a D-Type Triplex. They were in service from February 1925 to July of 1967, primarily on the Brighton- ("B") and Sea Beach ("N") lines.
Great slide show. I mentioned those cars because I rode them when I was a kid. The Dyre AV line was called the Dinky, with two cars running from 180th ST to Dyre AV before the Dyre AV flyover was built. Used Hi V, Lo V and a type with open platforms.
@rjmins There is only one Hi V deck roof car and one Gibbs Hi V car in existence and those are in Connecticut and Maine. All the others were scrapped long ago. The Lo V cars should definitely have been included.

These are great, but where are all the Lo V and Hi V cars?
