I have no idea, to be honest--I know of one wooden platform at Himekawa Station which was made with railroad ties, so prob longer-lasting

Now there's an idea. I'm just thinking about whether putting up temporary wooden platforms like NoHo/Greenfield is a good way to get new...

biggest issue with the Noho one is it's short and people waiting meet people getting off the train hang out on the platform

platform should only be for those getting on the train; there's not enough room

just checked Amtrak's website; I didn't realize all the regionals from on the New Haven -Springfield are cancelled on weekdays working hours

this is disappointing: projected time from New Haven to Springfield 1hr20min http://wwlp.com/2017/07/26/new-rail-line-to-boost-service-between-springfield-hartford/ … fastest current time is 1hr25min

it's only 62 miles! should be easy to get one way times down to an hour

with 12 intermediate stops? Hour sounds like a stretch
