If you look at a map, or calculate the time to cross in Manhattan, the Rockaway Line doesn't fit the mold of the NYC subway. It shows that it was a subway that got dumped onto a commuter railroad.

The 7 to Secaucus makes a lot of sense. Maybe a small extension to Bayside, although it has some capacity issues, so we'd have to see how CBTC sorts those out. On the flip side, the Port Wash Branch should have more stations in Queens, as it currently doesn't serve the city itself very well.

The 7 train to Secaucus fits the mold of the NYC subway much better than the Rockaway line.
