So would they have to check tickets before people board the train to prevent that, like Amtrak at Penn Station?If they specifically want to ban people from traveling to one specific destination despite having a valid ticket to that destination? That would be the only surefire way of doing it. If they merely wanted to deter riders from making that trip, they could have signs/announcements indicating that Hudson and Harlem trains stop at 125th but New Haven trains don't (similar to how NJT lists which trains do and don't stop at Secaucus). That would be sufficient to keep causal riders away, but if someone definitively knew a given train was stopping at 125th and boarded with a ticket to 125th, they'd be entitled to ride— what a lot of SubChatters don't seem to understand is that "theft of service" is a fairly high bar that can't be met simply by using a service in a way that the provider doesn't approve of. |
