>>1135387> Overnight airport rail service Extend and increase the Morning Liner and Evening Liner service via Keisei Main Line for a few trains. Done. Bus can handle the rest.
>>1135378 >>1135396 Narita Sky Access:
Narita Rapid Railway Access section:
Dual-track JR-Keisei shared section. Nuff said.
Narita Rapid Railway section:
25kV 50Hz ac Narita Shinkansen's top speed was to be 250km/h operational and 260km/h by-design, with one intermediate stations and two equally capable train classes using the same HSR rolling stock only.
Hokuso Line:
Pre-existing frequent conventional speed suburban rail with through service to Asakusa Line metro,
1. Give me an example of 160km//h top speed commuter-type rolling stock.
2. How does one operate at higher speed mixed with such numerous train classes (stopping pattern, train schedule, acceleraion & deceleration, overtaking, etc)?
3. How would capacity and frequency on Hokuso Line and the resultant rider dissatisfaction be compensated? Worse is the development potential and return on invesment in these real estate projects.
4. How much does it take to upgrade track switch at stations and signalling for the whole operating fleet? Not to mention passing tracks and potentially new platforms.
5. Who would pay for it? Third sector solution? Keisei directly responsible for everything as the sole financer (including its subsidiaries of Hokuso and Chiba New Town Railway, before other companies' track-side infrastructure owners?
6. Is this necessary for inter-modal and peer competition? How much market share and new customers is to be gained?
More like JR East has some much-needed improvements warranted in its existing local lines.
