How would you go about doing that?Red- Rush hour, make more trains be Silver Spring- Grosvenor. Off hours you could probably make a Takoma-Friendship Heights service work, but I doubt either of those terminals would work very well on peak headways. Perhaps turn some trains at Brookland using the Greenbelt connector. Orange/Silver/Blue- Cut the Blue back to Stadium Armory full time. Perhaps Some Silver turns at Addison Road and some Orange line at Cheverly. Additionally, any remaining capacity not used by the Blue at Stadium Armory could be used by Silver/Orange- Yellow/Green- Cut the Yellow back to Fort Totten or Mt. Vernon. Some short turning Greens at Fort Totten too. On the south end, Turn some back at Naylor. I know Naylor is two stops into Maryland, but it is close enough to DC to keep IMHO. Also, cutting back the Green to run additional Yellows might be worth considering. |
