Thanks for the correction to my “misunderstanding”! I suspect that, when I’ve looked at pre-1952 photos, the uncovered windows haven’t registered.

Did all of these cars have their windows plated, and was there a reason for covering them?

Rupert,

 

That's not quite right.  The Q ran them without any window plates and on the Allied Full Cushion trucks, with Railroad Roman "Burlington" and other lettering until about 1952-53.  At that point they plated over the windows and went to the "Ribbon Style" lettering, and changed out many of the trucks.  There are many pictures of the Jeeps without plating.
