Posted by (SIR) North Shore Line on Thu Sep 6 20:24:52 2007, in response to Water St Subway instead of FTC and SF rebuild? (was:Re: Would 4-track express service...), posted by WillD on Thu Sep 6 10:22:03 2007. WillD, I'm not sure if you've been down to South Ferry lately, but throughout August, during the height of the PM Rush Hour, there was almost always three trains below Rector St at any given time. One is usually at the station, and two are waiting behind it. This happened to me every weekday afternoon and caused me to miss quite a few boats. I'm not sure about those absurd numbers brought about, as the (1) is quick as-is, but it frequently gets clogged with a few trainsets outside of South Ferry. Then South Ferry, has the whole issue of the narrow staircases and the platforms becoming dangerously crowded as people hurdle to form single lines up the steps.One can now see the new SF Terminal lead tracks and the routing down there looks to be so much more direct than the current loop route. |
