Perhaps they want the option of increasing service on existing electrified lines,And how are they going to do that? Waterfront Connector can only accomodate so many trains and Newark is a terrible terminal. By extending electrification on the partially electrified lines and extending trains it'll be possible to give more people a one seat ride into Manhattan without putting any more stress on Kearny Jct, Secaucus, or the North River tubes. or they are covertly planning to scrap some or all of the Arrow III's. They could do that if they reverse their decision to not rebuild their remaining Comet III's. No they could not. There are 49 Comet IIIs and 228 Arrows IIIs, even if they were to hold onto the Comet IIIs and use the new Multilevels they wouldn't have enough cars to cover their trains if they dumped the Arrows. |
