Due to platform restrictions which limits the consist of the M train, swapping it with the E train would severally limit capacity and cause more overcrowding on the QBlvd Express.I don't see the need as someone suggested of removing the R from QBLVD local service if the Rockaway Beach Line was activated since there is capacity to add more service on the QBLVD local tracks. I don't know if the Sixth Avenue tracks can handle an additional service, but if it could you could start the W at Second Avenue and go through the 63rd St. Tunnel. Then connect to the local tracks at 36th st. instead of starting it at Whitehall. Of course running it from Houston St. along the SAS through the 63rd St. Tunnel would be nice to if Phase III of SAS were to ever be built. |
