Those "Mafersa" coaches with the manually operated doors were used as an excuse not to re-establish "Shoreline East" service direct into Stamford post-pandemic, due to supposed "safety" concerns. I guess they deem them safe enough for Springfield Line service! Of course, Shoreline East is now running with M8s, so that excuse for not running Shoreline East trains that run through to Stamford no longer exists, yet Shoreline East trains all continue to terminate in New Haven.
