With the exception of the G, does any line run trains shorter than platform length? I don't even think they cut trains during off-hours anymore.C route - all trains are 480' long. And then there are the shuttles, Rockaway Park, Myrtle Av, etc. Until a few years ago, the 3 route ran shorter trains. For a short while recently, there were 10-car trains on the Flushing Line, which can handle 11 cars. Technically, some platforms, especially on the ex-IND, are rather longer than 600', but the days of 11 car trains in service on the lettered routes ended a long time ago, from what I've heard. |
