Which tracks are station tracks at Jamaica station?

• A. 0 to 4 and 9 & 10
• B. 2 to 7 and 10 & 11
• C. 1 to 8 and 11 & 12
• D. 3 to 8 and 12 & 13

Answer: (C)

Station tracks are the tracks that have platforms next to them and are used for boarding passengers. At Jamaica station, the tracks that run adjacent to the platforms and handle passenger service are the ones in the range that covers the main boarding lanes, plus the additional platform-adjacent track(s). The set that includes 1 through 8 and 11 through 12 matches exactly the tracks you can access from the platforms for passenger trains, while other tracks are used for through movement, yard operations, or non-platform purposes and aren’t considered station tracks. So, this option best reflects the tracks you’d expect to use on a typical boarding basis at Jamaica station.
