When that happens, I’ll admit it. I’m confidently looking forward to the capacity of South Ferry, measured in the number of trains per hour that it can handle, diminishing when the new station opens.I could be wrong, but I don’t think so. By the way, I learned the mathematics and physics that govern both of these situations when I was about 12. While designing a station and its engineering are beyond my means, understanding its limitations given the published characteristics of trains and switches doesn’t require anything that wasn’t taught to an English 12-year old in the 1960s. Of course, given the dross that American high school students are forced to wade through, I can understand that many of you never get to such simple facts and therefore have to confront Clarke’s third law. |
