I think the schedule shows a difference in travel time between Brighton expresses and locals as 6 minutes. From the infrequent visits I've had to New York, I've noticed it to be as much as 8 minutes. And that's even with the superior acceleration of the R160s on the local. I'm surprised that the difference is this high, I thought 30 seconds per stop = 4 minutes should be the difference. Apparently, it's because three of four the express runs reach 40+ mph for an extended period of time. |
