That means around 30 TPH into each Midtown terminal, minus any diesel trains headed for LIC, which I am sure will see significant reductions once ESA is open.Does the LIRR really need 60 TPH into Midtown? Even with a third mainline track in Nassau County? Even with electrification all the way to Yaphank and/or Port Jefferson? Don't forget that FBA gets about 20 TPH by itself. I think the LIRR can afford to surrender a dozen or so slots to the New Haven line at Penn Station during rush hours and 2 slots an hour off peak once ESA is ready. |
