The Flushing Line was supposed to have been extended along the LIRR ROW for some distance. When I first rode the Port Wash branch in the 1960s, the LIRR ROW was 4 tracks wide with only 2 tracks installed. The tracks were laid in the middle trackways and swung out at the stations to permit LIRR trains to make the stops. As planned, the LIRR would have been express and the IRT would have been local. |
