There will never be another tunnel built from midtown to Queens, for the simple fact that the capacity of the 63rd st tunnel is artificially kept low.If anything, the Steinway Tubes could be rebuilt and widened,since the tubes were driven through mostly rock. Widening has been done in other countries and even in the United States, but I don't know if it has been done in New York. The tunnel after Grand Central is wide enough for B division railcars all the way to 34th st. The reconstruction of the Steinway Tunnel is crucial in any case, since the puny rebuild didn't cover enough structural problems. |
