Re: Blog Post: IBX cannot be a tram

I have some coments relative to the so called clearance problem in the Bushwick tunnels. First Ifthe NY Connecting RR was able to use those tunnels for freight which it did then there should be no trouble at all since most standard RR freight cars are bigger than NYCTA subway cars. Second, even if you assume that the tunnels can only clear cars the size of PATH rolling stock, then there should be no problem at all clearing current IRT cars so worst case scenario, the line could be incorporated as a part of the IRT (A) division with no difficult enabling it to also be connected to the Flatbush terminal of the IRT (2 & 5) which it would pass right by.
