When the IC plated over the front windows of the domes, they did it because 
they were afraid of the frontal impact of any object shattering the glass and 
injuring dome passengers.  Southern Pacific had the same fears, which is why 
they did not have domes on the City of San Francisco, and why their own 
homebuilt domes had minimum front exposure.  They were especially worried about 
what 
things falling from tunnel ceilings would do to a dome car.  JN
