Re: MTA removes or increases more speed limits

I’ve been commuting on the Brighton Line for 20 years and don’t recall any overshoots until July 2017. Since then, I’ve experienced three of them, each time on the express. The last such incident was two months ago, during the late AM rush, northbound at Church. That consumed 20 minutes, complete with announcements about waiting for permission to leave. Because the doors never opened, there was no opportunity to transfer to one of the locals that ended up ahead of us.

I’m not saying that T/Os deserve harsh punishment—for all I know, equipment issues could be more to blame—but I do know that overrunning a platform is an effective way to waste a lot of people’s time.
