Re: The Connection Between WTC and Cortlandt St |

Posted by Gene B. on Fri Mar 9 17:38:37 2012, in response to The Connection Between WTC and Cortlandt St, posted by E and F and sometimes J on Thu Mar 8 18:16:59 2012. Great idea. I have advanced this proposal several times before on this site. It provides lots of GO flexibility and can provide Brooklyn riders with a one seat ride to upper Manhattan or out Queens Blvd., depending upon how the E, R and N are rerouted after the connection is made. It has been set up to be a minimal connecting job. I am of the belief that it was intended to extend the IND over BMT trackage and more extensively into Brooklyn. Most importantly, if the E went through the Montague St. tunnel, it would stop at Court St. and provide the only Brooklyn free transfer between the IRT and the Manhattan IND, even if it is technically on BMT trackage. |
