Re: Speeding up timers

there will probably be more collisions and derailments.

collision avoidance depends on whether the emergency brakes are maintained according to the 3.0 mph/sec spec.

faster trains mean more wear and tear on the rails. if the rails are not maintained, there will be more derailments.

slower trains have been the MTA's response to rolling stock and right of way maintenance failures. it was easier to slow the trains than to correct the maintenance deficiencies. the public and politicians swallowed it.
