Posted by Avid Reader on Sat Jun 15 07:24:15 2019 Could overhead catenary be installed for use from Hicksville along The Central Branch to Babylon and then to Patchogue, and from Hicksville to Port Jeff? How about possible use Oyster Bay? Is a catenary installation vs. third rail installation less expensive if both use only D.C. 750 volts? The Catenary would be safer for at grade travel Will M-8 Mu passenger cars cost less if both panto-graph and third rail shoe draw 750 volts D.C.(reduced of equipment)? Would the M-8's height be a clearance problem along these routes?
