Re: MYA could approve massive service cuts

Posted by Michael549 on Sat Oct 24 12:02:11 2020, in response to Re: MYA could approve massive service cuts, posted by Steamdriven on Fri Oct 23 15:39:02 2020.

From a previous message:

"Lower ridership, thus lower service. If trains are half empty, run half trains. With lower demand there’s enough equipment to leave half the fleet in halves and run the full trains only when needed."

I thought that the usual argument about "cutting trains in half for low-ridership periods" was that it was MORE EFFORT, WEAR-AND-TEAR and MANPOWER than to just leave the trains full-size. As well as the issues of varying levels of crowding even during "low-ridership" periods.

Of course this is in addition to the current issues of social distancing.

Just wondering.

Mike
