Posted by Chris R16/R2730 on Wed Aug 27 14:29:02 2014, in response to Why Does LIRR Cosy 30% More to Operate Than Metro-North?, posted by heypaul on Wed Aug 27 12:28:53 2014. All kinds of interesting stuff here:- LIRR has higher weekday ridership, but MN has higher overall. That indicates a LOT more people use Metro North on the weekends - Does the MN trackage include the Pascack Valley line? If not, that's a huge disparity with the LIRR, even if you exclude the Beacon line - I would have never guessed that Metro North's car fleet would be higher than the LIRR's, given all the branches and the longer trains the LIRR has/runs. - I am at a loss to explain why the LIRR costs $400 million more to run than Metro North, given these stats. |
