See above.
SIR is highly dependent on the Ferry, which the MTA has no control, over. The majority of the time, the ferry is NOT delayed, and the 15 minute trains are of no use.

Comparing HBLRT to SIR is invalid. They are 2 different railroads. I would want to see computer analysis on how a HBLRT cars would perform on the SIR given its loads and distance between stops.

Then go though some cost/benefit analysis to rebuilding all the platforms, including the many at ST George, then compare to the modest benefit of just maybe 22 verses 20MPH.
