Re: Retired R46's

Some of your suggestions were actually in the plans for the IND. The connection between the stub terminal at WTC and the BMT at Cortlandt St was planned as well as building a new underwater tube utilizing the bellmouths S/O Whitehall St and connecting to Court St, the current site of the transit museum. It is no longer possible to connect the Bway Subway to the IND 8th Ave line since the exp tks have been connected to the SAS. The problem with some of your suggestions is that some of the existing lines are either at or close enough to capacity that there would be no useful way to utilize them. For example, if you connected the Brighton Line to the Smith St Line what sort of new service would you operate that wouldn’t impact on the existing Q, B and F services? The same problem would exist connecting the DeKalb complex with Rutgers St especially if it were done in combination with the previously mentioned connection.
