Posted by fisk ave jim on Fri Feb 12 19:05:56 2010, in response to Future MNR New Haven Line Service to Penn Station, posted by Andy on Fri Feb 12 18:52:24 2010. Not being a mechanical expert here, but from my expierence in the field & eavesdropping, the only equiptment that the New Haven line could use goin into Penn Sta would be the M-8 class currently in the inital phases of delivery. Voltage/phase wire issues forbid the current M series cars in service to use the Hell Gate line for Penn Sta Service.As for third rail issues, maybe they could use a retractible 3d rail shoe that Amtrak used on their turbos when they had to leave MN territory & go to Penn Sta. Just a guess... |
