The solution is either to adjust the schedule or to build an overpass. Adjusting the schedule is easier said than done. Moving either train by a minute or two just recreates the problem one station up or down the line.Exactly. Everyone obviously knows this happens everyday, yet they still come late to the station. Then that's their fault. They know what the schedule is, if every morbing this situation happens, then obviously you have to come 5 minutes early. So I have no sympathy here on this. The railroad can't just shuffle the schedule around either. As mentioned, it just causes a problem down at the next station, or more so, it's slot in Penn Station is effected which begins to effect other lines, that have to be switched, and then the problem just happens at some other station on some other line somewhere. Simple. Leave 5 minutes earlier. |
