Both have capacity to run more trains if demand increases. The L is reaching the limits of even it's new signal system. There's only one answer for it: extension. I would suggest that the MTA contract with Kawasaki to make a number of "blind" cars compatible with the R143 so that each 4 car set can have be increased to 5 by inserting it in the middle (like the old BMT 4XXX trailers were). No FIND, no stripmaps. Just a basic car. |
