High level/low level cars work quite well elsewhere, surely it could be done here. San Francisco and Karlsruhe, Germany are good examples, and this method saves a lot in construction costs, especially at minor stations. While admittedly the maintenance cost for the cars themselves would probably be higher, the capital construction costs would probably be far less. |
