Posted by Wado MP73 on Sun Feb 19 10:52:55 2012, in response to Re: NY Senate Urges MTA To Reject Proposal To cut LIRR service into Penn Station, posted by Olog-hai on Sun Feb 19 00:54:35 2012. In the case of Amtrak and Metro-North on the Hudson Line, this would not give any particular operational flexiblity.The ability of running both current third rail equipment and overhead AC catenary equipment doesn't count as flexible to you? Great; more apples/oranges. This was not being discussed here AFAICS. It's about being able to use current equipment until you get new ones. The AC/DC third-rail/catenary EMUs have a lot more physical equipment on them than your Arrow III. That could be said for the AC only Silverliner V too. M7s have also more equipment than M1s. The difference between current DC only equipment and current AC only equipment is much greater than between current AC only equipment and current AC/DC capable equipment. You're the one who brought up new-build HSR Again, just for frequency of service and you're bringing up matters that have nothing to do with what I said. Stop being so disagreeable. Would you first before asking others? |
