If they operated 40 tph sequentially, they could nearly duplicate existing service levels over the hour.They can't quite store 20 trains in Manhattan. But say they can do 16 trains leaving Bedford between 8 AM and 8:30 AM. Great. Now there is no service from 8:30 until roughly 9:15. There are huge numbers of L train riders in that time period too. NYCT can't efficiently handle those kinds of crowds queueing up waiting for the next batch of trains. |
