Posted by Dyre Dan on Fri Oct 7 11:17:39 2016, in response to Re: HBLR Extension, posted by Joe V on Thu Oct 6 07:46:56 2016. With the #7 now going to 34th St.-Hudson Yards, and having tail tracks that continue well south of there (I think to 25th St.?), it is no longer even heading toward Secaucus at the end of the currently existing trackage. So an extension there would not seem likely at all. Not that it ever really did; the political dealing that would have to be made to run NYC subways in New Jersey presented a massive obstacle itself. And if an extra fare was to be charged, how would that be handled? Something like the way it used to be done in the Rockaways seems to be the only practical possibility; the extra fare would be paid to exit the station in NJ, not just to ride there. These days, there would be no need to make the fare exactly double the base fare though; any differential could be charged. |
