To me the express tracks we have are more valuable for the capacity they provide (for more branches to the other boroughs) than the speed they allow.Initially, we're talking about something like 3-8 tph on the stubway, depending on time of day. So that still leaves plenty of capacity left over. As it is, very little of NYCT's trackage is operated at practical capacity anyway; it's basically just the Queens Blvd express tracks D1/D3 during part of the peak period between 36 St and 71 Av. |
