The only purpose of running the B would be to serve the underserved CPW line.That is much more efficiently achieved by running the D local. The purpose is to allocate late night and weekend service so that trains are not bypassing stations they could be stopping at. Skipping the local stations saves people on the trains 3 minutes, while if the train would only stop, those waiting on the platforms would gain 15 minutes. Considering the similar sizes of both populations, it is absurd that the D runs express at nights, and on weekends. |
