Posted by randyo on Sat Aug 20 15:35:07 2011, in response to Re: Brighton Express, posted by New Flyer #857 on Fri Aug 19 08:04:50 2011. It was only recently that switches between A3 and A4 were reinstalled S/O BBC. When the platforms were originally extended to hold 10 cars in the 1960s, the switches were moved N/O the station because there was no room for them between the S/E of the platform and the A5 And A6 Yd tracks. The new switches S/O the station were installed beyond the switches to the yd tracks and those switches should probably be eventually moved S/O the diamond Xover so that put ins and layups can go to and come from the proper tracks. The reason that trains are currently not relayed S/O the station is probably as a cost cutting measure since the time it takes to relay would add to the cost of a run and possibly even add a crew or at least some switchmen to relay the trains. |
