- Let me clarify this.
- At Harvard, the upper level tracks are outbound and the lower level
- tracks are inbound.
- At Porter, on the other hand, the upper level tracks are INBOUND and
- the outbound is on the LOWER level.
- I think Porter is lower than Harvard, so this means that the
- outbound track drops much more than the inbound track. Why was it
- designed this way? Wouldn't it have been easier to have the same track
- on the top at both stations?
