Re: Broadway Express Service

The standard when I was in scheduling was 30 seconds for every stop. since there are 4 stops between 137th St and 96th St that would mean a 2 min difference between local trains and trains on the express tk. the preferred clearance between trains on the same track is 2 min although 90 seconds is allowed if absolutely necessary. With an express 2 min behind a local, that would make the lcl and exp arrive at the respective merge points at the same time. Even allowing anexp 1 1/2 min behind the local that would make the exp arrive at the merge point 1/2 min ahead of the lcl, too close for accepted standards.
