Other factors would probably restrict it further.Yeah, if some relay moves and tracks are unavailable, that might create the potential for conflicting moves. It might be possible based on the time that a signal clears once passed to run in excess of 30 tph, but given Queens Blvd Line express ridership, I don't see that happening, even with the caveat that running more trains would mean less people on each individual train. Possibly if all local trains made all stops to 179 St, they could run in excess of 30 tph, but ideally one would want to see that to believe it. Prior to Archer Ave, E's ran at 12 TPH and the F ran at 18. Curiously, genuine E route (Jamaica Center-World Trade Center) is still 12 tph because of the congestion at Jamaica Center. |
