So how many tracks run between Bridgeport and New Haven?
With increased SLE service are not four tracks needed in this area?
There are 4 tracks, Bridgeport to New Haven EXCEPT between Woodmont (CP 266) and the east end of Devon (CP 261) where there are 3 tracks. A 3 track right of way probably has more capacity than the 4-tracks of the NH did, given that trains can run on any track in either direction based on signal indication.
SLE service doesn't run west of New Haven, hasn't since before 3/2020. And given SLE funding cuts, who knows if it ever will again, or in what capacity.
