Posted by Russ on Sat Jan 26 12:21:13 2008, in response to Re: ''V'' to Euclid Ave, posted by Stephen Bauman on Sat Jan 26 12:16:04 2008. You already have 23 tph (15+8, E+V) on the 53rd St line. You could add another 7 to bring service up to 30 tph.Where are you going to turn them around? You either have to turn them around at Queens Plaza or run them on the local because the F's 15 tph have to merge with the E. Turning at Queens Plaza means fumigation and 15 tph total. Run them on the local to Forest Hills? Fumigation at Continental limits existing R+V service to current levels. Fumigation at Continental also precludes running the new service out to 179th on the local. How effective do you think a new terminal station for QB local trains would be if it was a three track, two island station that utilizes the Jamaica Yard loop? The station would be east of the yard. |
