I'm delighted that they're adding service but lmfao @ talking about how 25 people is "crowded," "a big crowd," "one of the biggest hubs"

Let's make it one of the biggest hubs tho--this is a step in the right direction: http://www.gazettenet.com/Northampton-Amtrak-ridership-10945621 …
-
it's crowded because the platform isn't long enough to board the entire train (only connects to 1 car length if I remember right)
-
The Springfield to Holyoke segment is still painfully slow
-
Agreed, and it's absurd that they back out of Springfield then reverse direction before going north
-
That said, the Holyoke to Northampton segment is much faster even than driving! If the frequency were good too....

The NNEIRI intercity plan or something else?
-
I think it's something else--a sort of Springfield Commuter Rail initiative; piggybacking on the Hartford one
-
The 8 trips is a temporary measure, the eventual target (if memory serves) is 12
-
Hourly service on the CT river valley...I would be a very happy man...
-
I put together a plan for half-hourly service using DMUs for a transit planning studio a couple of years ago. Would work nicely!
