BUT ONLY IF IT IS CHEAPER TO INSTALL AND TO RUN!Catenary should be safer than third rail, because it is elevated beyond easy reach. The Bastard modified M-8 would not be excluded from the rest of the electrified LIRR or Penn Station, but would be denied use on the METRO NORTH, NEW HAVEN BRANCH. The region beyond Ronkonkoma to Riverhead is sparse when compared to Nassau and Queens. Just like areas of the Bronx and Queens where at the time when the IRT and the IND were built in those locations. What happened in the Bronx and Queens? What happened along the Ronkonkomo Branch? The north fork has surged over the last few decades, but is still some what vacant. Maybe, just maybe a catalyst is needed to spark growth and use, that may be self generating. |
