It`s not that the tunnel got smaller, the tunnels` inner diameter apparently got compromised by newly installed conduits and other equipment. The Museum equipment the did in fact use this tunnel in regular service. The sides of the so-called new tech trains are sloped thereby leaving a narrower Footprint at the top. So they could enter the tunnel with no issue. The older stock equipment have more vertical sides, leaving a wider Footprint at the roofline, hence your clearance issues. From the post it appears someone omitted these factors from their calculations.Hope that helps. The Lurker`s Guild Chairman Emeritus |
