I meant 63 with Martz as well (the 30 buses from Bieber + TransBridge with Allentown/RVL service and the 33 from Martz with the Pocono service). And you're right, it wouldn't eliminate the service entirely, but it would curtail the number of trips. By how much would have to be studied. But just because wrong railing isn't performed today doesn't mean it is completely impossible. There are clearly major issues with the freight hosts, but they're not impossible hurdles. The reason I said express for Allentown trains was in hopes that running express would make the rail service time competitive with the bus. If that wouldn't be the case, then forget that service completely. Making folks commutes longer isn't a solution I'm looking to employ, so if any part of my plan is flawed in that regard, then I'm happy to cut it out. It's exactly why I hate the plan of running rail service up to Binghamton. No way that line could be time competitive with Shortline simply because of the geography of the route. |
