Posted by randyo on Fri Jan 23 14:59:48 2015, in response to Re: AirTrain Proposed To Connect (7) Line With LaGuardia Airport ($450 Million, 5 years), posted by Stephen Bauman on Thu Jan 22 20:53:55 2015. Was thinking recently that if the TA had opted to lengthen the Flushing Line platforms to hold 12 cars rather than 11, it would have not only increased capacity on the line but would have eliminated the need to order special single cars for the 1964 World’s Fair. Of course with the NTTs there would still be the problem of providing an extra car in the “normal” 5 car sets being ordered for the IRT, but even with that being done, that would make the standard train length on the Flushing Line 600 ft like the standard train length on the BMT/IND even if the IRT cars are bit narrower. |
