"...in as much as a #7 extension won't inspire them to re-engineer it for 12 or 14 car trains."All thats standing in the way for bigger/wider B div sized cars on the #7 is the Steinway Tunnel. That tunnel is well over 100 yrs old. A rebuild should be in the foreseeable future anyway. Another "Sandy" might make the need for a re-build sooner. Just re-build it to B div specs, do some necessary clearance adjustments between Hunterspoint & TS. & presto, you have a B div Flushing Line. AFAIK, as a dual contract line, it was built to B div specs as was the extention to the Hudson Yds. All the MTA has to do now if figure out how to print Money! |
