Track 5 in SONO is only 3 cars and engine long, only way a transfer could be done in SONO is if track 5 were made in to a trough track and south side station building demolished, but then still CP241 is mainly only 15 mph switches, so any train crossing over ties up 4 tracks for 3 to 4 minutes.
Running little trains on mainline makes no sense, it takes up a same track slot as a big train, so why run a SLE shuttle anywhere when you can run a 10 car M-8 set and make a few more stops.
The New Haven line is at or near saturation level for amount of trains.

If Conductors are in charge, why are they promoted to be Engineer???
