BM5 via Woodhaven Posted March 4, 2020 Share #6926 Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) That was a pretty decent way of handling that issue IMO ( via Jamaica Exp to Chambers Street). I'm guessing the thinking here was that since it was rush hour, and they wanted to get people south of Broadway Junction into Manhattan at least. Simultaneously, heading express reduced the amount of delays because of people wondering where the train is going.

Also nukes the argument of eliminating train operators at least until the whole B Division is CBTC equipped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are ATO systems that do computerized/automated switching - they're just not in NY outside of Port Authority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
