To justify fast expresses from Hunterdon County, you would have to fill 6 MLV cars from Somerville - west. As it is west-of-Raritan loadings are just under 300 per day. They would have to round up 800+ people on each of several trains to justify any more passing tracks. I don't see where they would all come from.All of Trans-Bridge is 45' coaches on 23 buses. That is 1,265 seats, and you would be lucky to get one-thirds of them. Remember also that no rush hour RVL train will get to NYPS until Gateway tunnels are built and the existing tunnel rebuilding is over. That is many years off. |
