I was wondering, just how difficult is it for the train dispatchers and management to divert an N-train to 95th Street (where the N-trains are running like clock-work every 5 minutes), but there's a blockage of R-trains and the platforms are filled with riders waiting for the R-train?Is it that the diverted N-train has to be "abandoned" on the paper work, with the crew sent somewhere else, and then back to where it is supposed to be? Is it that a 20 or 30 or 60 wait for the blockage to clear is just not "Important enough" to warrant "doing something"? Or that a certain level of higher-up management is needed to make such a decision? Or is it that the riders should know that 20 or 30 or 60 wait is just too long, and to go ANYWHERE ELSE, but to definitely not expect the MTA to try to quickly resolve the situation, to get the train traffic moving again? As in, "we don't have to make an announcement", we've already got your money, and if the trains are extremely late & crowded - tough noogies! Just wondering. Mike |
