"From what I've read, sustained speeds over 90 mph aren't a good idea with third rail."Not true, actually. The M1 was designed for 100 mph on third rail. There would be no problem doing it except on very hot days or icy conditions. On express runs of the length LIRR does, acceleration doesn't matter a whole lot. Jamaica to Mineola, for example. |
