metsfan Posted January 16, 2011 Share #27 Posted January 16, 2011 Or they could be like every other snow belt transit agency & run empty trains to keep the snow clear and maybe purchase diesel/3rd rail locomotives to go retrieve stuck trains in the worst storms, during warm months you could have the new locomotives on work train and rescue duty. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again if it's that bad of a snowstorm or a hurricane in the summer/early Fall train service should stop period at least to elvated and outdoor stations. Not talking 'moderate snowstorms i.e less than 6 inches.' Safety comes over a handful of people trying to get to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even know they stopped.... Hey Metsfan how would you feel if you were among the riders stuck for 8-hours on that train during/right after the post X-mas Blizzard 2010?

This time everything failed because the decided to plan for a 1-3 inch storm instead of the 18-20 inch storm that the weather services predicted (didn't put in the appropriate plan, everything went to hell). Btw, that "shut 'ish down" thing the agency proposed was nothing more than a dog and pony show to make it look like things have changed. This agency is too full of shit to know whats best.

Nova i was out of the region during that now infamous blizzard. However you right the did screw up. Yes they have ran train service in 18-20 inches before. However that storm had winds of close to 70 mph guts as well the same as a Cat. 1 Hurricane. So IMO service to outdoor stations should have been suspened until the storm ended.

So IMO service to outdoor stations should have been suspened until the storm ended. The wind did not help (in fact, the storm probably wouldnt have been nearly as bad had it not been for the winds). If things turned out differently and the did their job on 12/27, I probably would have been saying something completely different. But I'm not 100% convinced (Im 60%. 40% has to see what would happen in Plan 4 before being convinced) that shutting service down could help.

Mac Claire Posted January 17, 2011 Share #32 Posted January 17, 2011 They should shut down the Dyre Line and provide free shuttle bus service,shut down Sea Beach line in one direction making the via so more trains on West End and shutdown the West End in one direction making the run via the .It'll make trains run closer. IMHP if any transportation gets shut down then it should be the buses. Buses can slip and slide or at best lose traction and get stuck. A train has a much lesser chance I would think, of anything major happening. I understand what happened with a few trains during that Christmas storm, but wouldn't that be the exception rather than the rule? Just one man's humble opinion.
