Re: Could you actually make LIRR and MNRR third rail shoes compatable?

However, you would need an up AND down tension; sorta difficult, no?

If LIRR 3rd Rail is higher than MNRR 3rd Rail minus the thickness of the shoe, it would be easy - two springs and both 3rd Rail systems would push on one or the other. The snag is that the shoe would have to be tear-drop shaped, or it would get knocked off. I'm sure it's technically possible, but whether you'd ever want to do it is another matter.
