Re: MTA Metro-North Railroad Penn Station Access - The new station locations and track maps/diagrams

I was thinking the 3rd rail would reach 1.5 miles to Bowery Bay as that is where the existing phase break is. At Pelham on the way to Mt Vernon there is a 180' gap with neither 3rd rail nor live cat, just 0.4 miles of dead cat west as a glide wire for insuring the pan gets lowered. At Bowery there is an 80' dead wire gap with neither 25 nor 60 Hz. In that case I wonder how things will be spaced as maybe letting a 60hz only pan glide west onto live 25hz wire might not be okay even if the car has gone to DC power. Details details.
