IMO cutting trains midday was time consuming, and labor intensive/expensive.There was a time when I was working at Metropolitan, and I forget if it was the last days of going via the Brighton or West End, that we had 3 cut and add men during the day. Not picked jobs, but extra jobs assigned by the crew office. By the time we were finished cutting (the extra guys did the put-ins and layups, the station switchman did the cuts & adds) by the time we finished cutting, plans were made to add them back up. A few 4 car trains only made 1 round trip. |
