    I hate the idea that transit is supposed to be “profitable” when it’s meant to be a public service. By contrast, the interstate highway system is not only not profitable but also inefficient compared to passenger rail yet the government and the public are happy to spend billions every year on expanding the system and adding more lanes

    For underground train station Penn Station is absolutely legendary also the station went thru a huge renovation and facelift which it’s was time since the showing it’s age and Amtrak and LIRR offices most of its amenities at Moynihan train hall just extension of Penn station and even better and greater. Penn station is like an underground city with most retail stores and below ground and the rail platforms are far below ground level which it’s very interesting.

    Bus service from Port Authority (only blocks away from Penn Station) goes directly to several Casinos, instead of a train station at the end of town. The bus takes the Garden State Parkway instead of having to go to Philadelphia and loop back around. If the rail infrastructure was better the ACES would have had the advantage of less delays and consumption of alcohol allowed and with party style busses to the Casino.

    The M8s used on Shore Line East are newer ones that are owned by ConnDOT alone, not jointly with NY. They are not used on the New Haven Line. They have had their third rail shoes removed, and therefore can not operate into Grand Central Terminal, or anywhere west of Pelham.

I did some more digging around - prior to the NYNH&H, there were two railroads: the New York and New Haven railroad (which owned the portion from NY to New Haven) and the Hartford and New Haven (H&NH) Railroad that owned and built the route from New Haven to Springfield via Hartford.

    $175 BILLION is an insanely large amount of money to spend on a single train corridor, especially one that already exists. The inflation adjusted cost of the ENTIRE original Interstate Highway System is $500 billion. This is the best investment in USA transportation ever. From San Francisco to LA is about 400 miles, and CAHSR will likely spend $160 billion ($400 million per mile). Highway construction is about $2.6 million per lane-mile, a six-lane freeway therefore costing $15 million per mile. Note that the estimated cost of extending Caltrain/CAHSR from where it presently ends in SF (4th and King) 2.2 miles to the ALREADY BUILT WITH A TRAIN BOX Salesforce Tower is $6.8 BILLION ($3 BILLION per mile).

    Summer of 2011, one day in July, the new haven line of Metro North suffered catrastriphic failure due to overhead loosening due to heat. Some trains were stuck with no power, no air conditioning, no ventilation in the middle of nowhere in intense heat during rush hour (so trains full) until trains behind could be cleared and a diesel shunter could get to them and bring then to the next station. I beleive after that, the overhead wires were updated to have weights instead of springs to provide the tension even in hot weather. Surprised this wasn't done to the new York to Trenton line.

    I was caught up in this mess. I was just about to enter the subway @157th when exiting commuters told me that nothing was running and to turn around. I immediately caught a southbound bus, but within a matter of a few stops the bus was jammed to capacity, forced to bypass more riders attempting to board. It took over an hour to get back to Columbus Circle. Visitors to NYC, who often are infrequent users of its transit systems, have no idea how critical they are to the daily functioning of the city.
