No it's not 3 to 1.There are 3 main tracks departing from NEC towards to 63rd Street Tunnel. Approaching the 63rd Street Tunnel, those tracks merge into two. At approximately the same point, two yard leads merge. So it's either 3 to 2 or 5 to 2 depending on if you are counting the non-revenue yard tracks. It appears that the middle of the three tracks will be mostly used by Port Washington Branch trains because of the configuration of Harold Interlocking and the desire to keep Amtrak and LIRR trains separate. |
