Posted by Lou From Middletown NY on Sat Mar 25 20:55:34 2017, in response to Re: Port Jervis Improvement Study, posted by Henry R32 #3730 on Sat Mar 25 20:21:32 2017. I noticed the C3 at the presentation, but did not mention it...1. One psossibility would be, for example, a morning WB train that terminates at Middletown, would go to the passing track to wait for EB trains coming from Port Jervis to pass by. If the picture they show is accurate, that is only about a mile west of Middletown. 2. They just had to do a quick rehab on the Moodna to keep it from falling apart. Both it and Woodbury are over 100 years old, and deficient. 3. How much would it cost them to pay NJT to do that? And it really is not that much of a problem - looking at the actual schedules, there's only one daytime train, and the very late train at night where local stops are made. As the report states, the real problem is the section between Harriman and Tuxedo, where the line follows the Ramapo River - for the reasons clearly stated in the report. by the way, Shortline does the exact same thing - the last schedule out of the PABT at 12:30/12:45 am is a local. And not many evening expresses either..and they all have to stop at the various park/rides. One would assume any new scheduled runs would be expresses. And what sort of capacity does NJT have left Suffern-Ridgewood?? |
