Maybe it's time Suffolk County take ownership of the railroad east of Ronkonkoma since the MTA doesn't seem to give a damn. They could have Veolia operate it..(lol)
I took that Greenport train today and it was packed, so packed people were standing in the single car that is open.
The MTA needs to get their head out of their ass and see the increasing ridership on the Greenport line. The North Fork is becoming more "Hampton-ized" and popular with tourists, and the MTA pretty much tells them to get robbed by the Jitney instead of actually trying to make the service appealing. The single car setup is becoming a huge problem now since they are now full and the 2nd car doesn't platform. The platforms need to be extended at Riverhead thru Southhold (I think Greenport can fit more than 1).
And since the tracks go right by Tanger, a stop there should be added!
