While I'd love the idea of more capacious tunnels, I don't see that happening even in a more forward-thinking era. They're going to be working on the Atlantic Ave Viaduct the next few years; it's reportedly in pretty bad shape. I think in order to create a higher ceiling in the tunnels, they would have to lower the floor.What I'd like to have seen on the Atlantic Line would've been better access to/from the yard, higher speed switching, extend/straighten the platforms, and leave some provision for extension westward. |
