Re: Should the city take back its buses and subways?

in the past, keying by worked.

That depends on one's definition of "worked".

In this context, I'm assuming "keying-by" was necessary to maintain the past's shorter headways. By necessary, I mean that without "keying-by" those shorter headways could not be maintained.

I think this is a valid interpretation for "worked" in this context.

If there were instances where the past headways were maintained while not employing keying-by, then your "worked" statement is incorrect within the constraints of the this definition. I can attest, to the best of my ability, that I have witnessed 100 second headways on the Flushing Line without the T/O resorting to keying-by. The documented 86 second headways on the Third Avenue El were before my time.
