Posted by Henry R32 #3730 on Fri Dec 15 22:56:13 2017, in response to Re: RPA: The Fourth Regional Plan: Create a fully integrated, regional transit system, posted by AlM on Fri Dec 15 22:23:31 2017. NY could just say, OK fine, we'll just run all the East Bronx trains from Port Chester, and deny CT commuters a route to Penn. So I think NY has the upper hand in those negotiations.Wasn't suggesting CT would make it difficult, just that it's something non-trivial that needs to get done due to adding the Bronx stops. As for scheduling, a press release said there would be 4TPH on the line off peak, 8-10 TPH peak. That suggests (off peak) two express and two locals, thus exactly what GCT has. The NH line can totally support an express service doubling - they typically need 7-8 open cars as it is on the off peak expresses. The locals I can see being a shuttle to New Rochelle where they will meet the GCT locals, which comfortably run with 6 open cars. |
