Actually, a cheaper solution is probably just having the T/Os step back two (or possibly three, if necessary) trains instead of just one. As an R or M arrives at 71st Ave, the T/O who will eventually take it back south again gets into the back. Then make some quick but not necessarily perfect efforts to clear the train, then move into the relay. Then move back into the station without the original T/O having to walk through the train. The original T/O then takes a break and then heads for the back of an incoming train, ready to be the T/O of a southbound train.Obviously this doesn't work for trains headed out to the yard, but even at the tail end of rush hour that's not going to be more than maybe one train out of three. |
