The New Haven line has needed catenary/third rail powered vehicles for almost a century. The wire is already there. What you advocate is the MTA spending millions to add another propulsion source, then spend billions on cars which can use it, all because the DM30AC's break down more often than most would accept. Sorry, but this sounds like collossal stupidity to me. How can you justify spending $1 on wire east of Riverhead? Or East of Speonk? For 3-5 trains a day!!?? |
