Re: RPA: The Fourth Regional Plan: Create a fully integrated, regional transit system

Posted by Joe V on Fri Dec 15 19:52:51 2017, in response to Re: RPA: The Fourth Regional Plan: Create a fully integrated, regional transit system, posted by AEM-7AC #901 on Fri Dec 15 02:43:47 2017.

The concept won't work here on railroads. Tremendous waste of reverse peak train miles on trains with large crew sizes, incompatible signal systems, speed control, electrical systems, and rolling stock. Service planning and schedule changes become impossible.

The subways runs through because they cannot be yarded. But the J, L, and 7 are simply sent right back where they came from. We have Sunnyside and West Side Yard.
