Posted by italianstallion on Sat Nov 17 16:17:15 2007, in response to Build a Virtual Subway Line in the Bronx, posted by italianstallion on Thu Nov 15 19:29:43 2007. From 7:30 to 8:30 am, there are roughly 51 MNRR in-bound trains passing through or stopping at 125th St. I believe they use 3 of the 4 tracks; thus, there are 17 trains on each track in that hour, or one in a little less than every 4 minutes.There is no problem adding 4 local tph on the Harlem line north of 149th St -- of those 51 total trains at 125th, 14 come from the Hudson line, so the Harlem/New Haven tracks north of the Hudson junction at 149th could arguably fit 14 more trains in that hour if the Hudson line did not exist. So, the question is, could 4 (or even 5) more trains per hour be fitted onto the 3 in-bound tracks below 125th in the height of the morning rush hour? |
