Of course, even a major freight railroad isn't particularly concerned about speed. I don't know what the grade on the Manhattan Bridge or the Williamsburg Bridge is, but it certainly seems slow when one is in a hurry. It would seem worse if one were trying to make a plane. No doubt a subway train could make the grade-- eventually-- but it wouldn't be rapid transit. |
