Re: Mamdani, G to Forest Hills on weekends thread

G to CTL isn't happening CBTC and GO'S or not.

Not as long as Janno Lieber is in charge. And he isn't going anywhere as long as Hochul is governor He has made his decision by purchasing 80 more open gangway cars which will be enough to make the G between Church & CSQ 100% open gangway.

Mark my words: TWU vs. MTA contract talks are coming soon. I am 100% sure that management will demand 24/7 OPTO G. This will kill the idea of G service to CTL when the M isn't running because the G would need more than a 300' train.

Many will say that the G needs longer trains NOW between CSQ & Church. I agree 100%. But Janno has already hyped that the open gangways have higher capacity as the area in between cars on a conventional train is taken up by passengers on an open gangway train.
