https://www.wisconsinhistory.org/Records/Image/IM13658 And I may have missed this design in the books I quickly perused however - The roof hatches appear to be diamond tread overlay material, and the hefty beams to hold the open hatches could underscore that they are plate steel, however I cannot recall seeing these roof hatches prior, and the accompanying latches. Wow can you imagine being in a hurry to open those, or worse yet pinch a finger when closing them. Modeled by a foil overlay? Can anyone provide a bit of enlightenment as to the design?
