Putnam question

Posted by italianstallion on Wed Feb 7 16:10:28 2018, in response to Re: [PHOTOS] Polo Grounds Shuttle - Part 2, posted by JOE @ NYCMTS - NYCTMG on Wed Feb 7 00:51:40 2018.

We've veered a bit to talking about the Putnam Division. One problem the Put had in attracting riders was that it did not extend into Manhattan, requiring a transfer to subway or Hudson line in the Bronx (same problem the NYW&B had). But my question is, was there any technical reason the Put could not have run trains directly into Grand Central via the Hudson line tracks? Same parent company, after all. I know it was not electrified, but what about dual-modes?
