This is just a theory, but from my experience with other European Subways, there often are just 5 50' cars on a line, so they pull into a station fast, decelerate really rapidly and then just take off, like Paris and Barcelona. In New York the trains are really long, and seem to slow down for stopping for a really long time in comparison. This could be the difference, that short light trains allow for closer spacing. |
