Exactly "what folks" along the F-train might accept fewer trains in return for those trains being express?There are 14 tph on the F line in rush hour. So if trains are evenly spaced you wait little more than 2 minutes for a train on average. Is it worth reducing that to 7 expresses per hour (and waiting 4+ minutes) in return for skipping a bunch of stops? Yes. Is there a feasible way to implement this? Quite possibly not. But it's not an inherently bad idea. It might just be an idea that can't be made to work. Or maybe it can be made to work. |
