You can't exactly do that...Amtrak owns those tunnels.I addressed that in another post. They're not going to allow MTA to disrupt their service to build an extension like that when they have a viable alternative such as ESA which doesn't disturb Amtrak operations. You can build a diverge without disruption to Amtrak ops. MTA build a diverge from a tunnel that required relocation of tracks without total disruption of their service on QB. You could do the same here (and here, we only need to build a diverge from one set of tunnels). |
