Through the 1980's, half the Babylon trains took the Atlantic. It was the half that did not stop at Lynbrook, which connected with the Hempsteads. The Babylon was on Track 6 and the Hempstead on Track 7.There was no interference with Far Rockaway - that was the other half of the trains, and Long Beach was a Brooklyn service that connected with Huntingtons. Still and all, Babylon and Long Breach train seldom run simultaneously, or would get in each other's way. The concept now is to not use Valley Interlocking, despite its computerization, straight line everything, however slow they make the service. |
