Posted by Jackson Park B Train on Sat May 30 02:19:44 2020, in response to Re: Culver Line, posted by BILLBKLYN on Sat May 30 01:08:21 2020. Having watched about 2/3 of the posted film, I come away with a realization that most of those trains were short, low capacity services. Somewhat remind me of a few bits of CTA in the 50s when base day trains were 4 cars and rarely full when I rode them. Today, one of those routes has had the platforms lengthened to berth 8 car trains and midday they are fairly full--most seats full many standees.though not crush loaded.So, I ask,because I wasn't riding any of the Brooklyn Els except the lower Myrtle in its last 2 years, if despite lower TPH than optimal, is there not greater net capacity than before the Els were demolished? For example, IINM the Ds and then Fs of my time in NYC (66-70) became 10x60; how long were Culver trains before the IND takeover? |
