Bringing LIRR into Grand Central expands the capacity of LIRR in Manhattan. Penn Station's slots are all filled and putting some trains into GCT expands their capacity into Manhattan. Bringing MNRR into Penn doesn't expand capacity. It is an expensive proposition that would save travelers half a mile of walking (oh my!) or a (GASP) short subway ride. You come to New York City to work, then you're a New Yorker here...learn to walk a little or take the subway. |
