Because it is a 5mi long tunnel and why do you want to fuck up the 1 line when you can run the SIRT to Manhattan w/an across the platform [well turnstyle entrance] transfer to the 1.A B division car can carry a lot more ppl plus a 'shuttle' would not be restricted by time since it runs from only 2 points just over a longer distance. You said it yourself you don't want a ferry, but you can't just screw up the 1 train as well as having a direct train connection to SI. You have to have compromises. Plus do you seriously believe the SIRT would be converted to IRT specs just so the 1 can run all the way down to Tottenville? Leave the 1 line alone and just send the SIRT up to Manhattan instead. |
