Posted by andy on Fri Feb 12 20:13:21 2010, in response to Re: Future MNR New Haven Line Service to Penn Station, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Fri Feb 12 19:50:55 2010. Good points. Thanks for sharing. With regard to the ARC tunnel into Penn, those tunnels and the "new Penn" under 34th Street will be completely independent of the current Penn, much like the LIRR GCT operation will be completely independent of the current station. So any New Haven trains traveling to/from NY Penn will have to use the current station and effectively become LIRR trains between Harold and Penn. With their LIRR type third rail also means that such equipment could be stored/serviced/turned in West Side Yard. Such moves open up many territorial issues that will have to be ironed out - such as will LIRR personnel clean and inspect MNR trains? |
