From a previous message:"You sound like the TA's service planning PR department." PLEASE DO NOT INSULT ME! I am no shill for the MTA Service Planning or Public Relations Department! - I simply do not see a good enough reason to change the operations of the D-train - either on Central Park West or on Sixth Avenue. - I simply do not believe that more people would be helped by making the D-train take on more local stops in Manhattan. I do not believe Grand Concourse riders will be helped by making the D-train take on more local stops. - I simply do not see any benefit to extending the M-train to West 4th Street because, in my opinion very few people would benefit. I have said what I thought - you disagree. I did not insult you for thinking differently than I do. Wallyhorse in the past has made similar proposals and ideas to "re-route things" that often serve few people, with ideas that would make subway trips more difficult and time consuming for others. That is his pattern. I been on plenty of C-trains that got held outside of Hoyt-Schermerhorn station, and at Canal Street on the journey to work waiting for A-trains or E-trains to pass before the C-train could proceed. Or on #6 express trains headed to Castle Hill Avenue in the Bronx - so yes, I do understand trains switching from track to track and being held by other trains. I do prefer straight rail running as much as possible - yes. I do prefer traffic patterns that work well and are well understood by the riders - yes. I do prefer not making the subways more complicated for no or little benefit for the majority of riders - yes. Will I speak my mind when there are proposals or ideas that I do not agree with - damn well yes! Just being me! Mike |
