1 question for Spring Creek:

 

Even though this thread is about College Point, i was wonderin about the fleet on Saturdays and i was wondering:

 

(1) Why does Saturdays not have Dwtwn Loop or Super Express?

 

Almost all of the ridership for the downtown loop consists of people that work on Wall Street, finance, etc, which means that there are not enough riders for the service on the weekends, as many of the people stay home. And since the buses are emptier in general on the weekends, and traffic is lighter, there is no need for a super express.

Is one MCI good enough for a weekend off-peak LIRR train's worth of passengers?

 

I suppose LI's easier traffic conditions (or farther spread traffic lights) have made it easier on our MCIs...

 

This one is hard to say only because when MNRR went out they had 50 MCI 's from Other Depots but LIRR Off Peak can carry

So they might need A few.
