Anyone.....am trying to clarify something that I have been told.....on the N5C cabin cars,
the porthole windows - both side and end - were they capable of being opened, much like those
found on ships? I have been told both no and yes. I have never seen any photos showing them
open, nor, read anything to the such. It has always been my understanding that only the windows
in the cupola could be opened. Can anyone help on this one? Thanks.
