Also improved air flow and cooling.

I fail to see how - they're only 7 foot high. If the train was completely
sealed off from the platform the sure, but it isn't. Any train heat just
wafts up and over.

Perhaps you haven't got the same skills as a proper fluid dynamics
engineer?

Unless those engineers have managed to change the laws of physics so hot
air no longer rises I can't see any mechanism

QED.

for it to make any significant
difference. What it does do however is prevent the brief cooling breeze you
get just before a train is about to pull in so in that sense its worse.

btw, I notice your posting host is the same as the ulm forger. Can you
explain that?

No idea what forger you're talking about but if you'd spent 30 seconds
in google you'd have discovered that aioe.org is a free service that doesn't
require an account so hardly surprising it gets used for that.

It's the @gioia. part I'm interested in.

Is that user-specific, or do all aioe.org users get the same hostname?
(Genuine question, and as you are apparently good at research I'm sure
you can easily produce a covincing cite).
