In the voice of Alex Trebeck -- "I'm sorry, Randy, that's not the answer our 
judges were looking for."

Photos of the DL&W biz cars in steam-era green show the window band as God 
and Pullman intended, straight across.   Oh, the panes.  Reconfiguring biz car 
interiors is not out of the question, and I don't know if that was done or not. 
 

I can't speak for the Erie cars.
