Here's the part that I do not understand, and I'm just a lay-person who has watched the tracks and switches from the "rail-fan window" for years.Would not one notice a track switch between the uptown and downtown express tracks BEFORE entering the Canal Street station? Especially the train operator? Or expect see such a track switch upon leaving the station platforms? Would not the train operator look ahead for such a switch? I suspect that one would be driving the train slowly for a such a switch move? The other question relates to "knowing where you are". In traveling through the wrong direction out of the Canal Street station through the Spring Street local station, would not one notice that there's one track to your (my) left (downtown local), and two tracks to your (my) right the uptown express and local tracks! I'm just asking. Mike |
