This isn't Chicago, and that is done on old pre-existing lines. And LIRR style service would be useless on the line even using RDC's. If it was to be a viable line it would need frequent rapid transit style headways, not commuter railroad headways. With Light Rail they could do that easily. Converting it to subway would be a lot more expensive (cost prohibitive actually because of the grade crossings), light rail would make much more sense. |
