The number of stops doesn't matter. You still have to cover the mileage to get to your destination. An R train spends hardly 30 seconds at each local stop. The real time savings of a local vs. express is slight. You are saving minutes here, not hours. How many times do the riders get off a Queens bound R at Queens Plaza, change for the express and get the same R train all over again at Roosevelt to get to 63rd Drive? How many times do they actually miss that train at Roosevelt and their scheme costs them more time than what they thought they were saving? |
