So, first, Dutchrailnut is correct, there is no clearance in the tunnels/GCT. North of the portal, relatively clear. In an ideal and affluent world doing catenary on MN and ultimately the electric parts of LIRR would encourage more and better through routing of trains. In the case of the Water Level Route faster trains to Albany because in my utopian vision wires would be strung clear to Albany. A real safety benefit for track maintenance crews of not having third rail to walk around is non trivial. |
