That would probably negate the whole purpose of reactivating the line in the first place. One of the ideas behind such a reactivation is to allow residents from more parts of Queens access the casino and convention center not to mention the shopping centers along Qns Blvd. Additionally, the NIMBYs along the ROW would be even angrier if they had to put up with trains running through their back yards and not being able to ride them. With the stations also reactivated or possible even new ones built where there were no stations before the NIMBYs who complained would at least have access to rapid transit that they didn't have before which might make them more willing to accept the presence of the line. |
