"Run a shuttle on the Port Washington Branch between Bayside and Willets Point every 10 minutes. " etc.I love this idea and your implementation plans. A similar route could be run in the Bronx on the Harlem Line, restoring the gap left when the 3rd Ave. el was taken down. Run shuttles from Wakefield to the Hub near a subway station. I thought of this a while ago but was stymied by how to do fare control - your idea of using SBS-type receipts solves that. One more idea -- while these routes would be run by LIRR and MNRR, give them subway-style letter or number designations -- so people would think of them as subway lines. That would help gain public acceptance. |
