You would have to build new tunnels: The *do* need more tunnel capacity, you know. You would have to build a new station, perhaps under 34th Street.Hey, guess what: The 63rd Street tunnel is *already built*. Hey, guess what: The lenghth of tracks that they are building in Manhattan to a new complex at GCT is shorter (cheaper) than building the same sort of facility at NYP. Besides, lets save any ideas of a new station under 34th Street for NJT since *they* need more capacity too. Seems to me that this is something that they got right for once. So where does that leave you? ROAR |
