Posted by Dupont Circle Station on Wed May 30 19:25:35 2012, in response to Re: Councilwoman Koslowitz rips (abandoned Rockaway) train line @ C.B. 6 Queens, posted by Joe V on Wed May 30 18:37:01 2012. The Crescent people can be obstructionist but the bigger complainers will be anyone who illegally built up/onto the ROW. F* them. Fine them for having used the land for free all these years. Turning that into a greenway will turn out to be a horrendous mistake. Restore the ROW/structure for eventual return to service as subway *NOT* LIRR. Maybe allow for bicycle and ped use until it's connected to the QB mainline...that would be a good 20-30 years out. Build the station shells, mount the signal masts, lay the rails and put removable decking over them to allow for maintenance...and be a constant reminder that it will be part of the subway. Be real creative and slap on a "if you obstruct, you will be f*ed dry with an assessment for preventing service." |
