Can Metropolitan turn both M and T trains during the rush. M trains already have to enter and leave Metro at slow speeds because the tracks end within the station. Can the flat junction at Broadway and Myrtle handle this T service in addition to the J, M and Z? I'm not sure if either one can handle it just fine. It might be able to handle a couple more M trains per hour (literally, as in two).

By sending the (C) to Rockaway Parkway, you're creating a new merge and potential choke point at West 4th St (where the C would be switching from the 8th Ave Local to the 6th Ave Local, but you already knew that). If you want to run an IND service to/from Rockaway Pkwy, why not run this (T) service there? At least then there would be no merging at West 4.
