Even if they put rail on the TZ, there's still the question of how to get it to NYC. The Hudson line would require an extremely awkward slow, sharp curve (which would limit the speed over the bridge, can't have trains going 60MPH downgrade into a tight curve).The Harlem line would be a better bet, if they can somehow loft the ROW over 287 (perhaps something like the Airtain's viaduct?). |
