It absolutely amazes me that 75-100 years ago we were able to build real trunk lines, like the West and East Side IRTs and the Queens Blvd line. A good deal of this contruction took place during times of depression and even war.Today, with all our technology, we don't seem to be able to build a decent line from 63rd to 99th Street. And I knwo that money's short (again), but it seems to me that having a siding to park a disabled train is a bloody good idea. I anticipate the whole project (stump that it is) being killed in the near future. |
