DO NOT SAY IT CANNOT BE DONE.It most assuredly CAN be done! LION would extend the Astoria end (single track on quite concrete risers to a new yard to be built on the Co Ed property. THIS CAN BE DONE. The MTA can help ConEd eliminate polution on the site, ConEd gets to keep the ground level, MTA builds its yards on an upper level, and then above the yards goes parking commercial and the residential space as tall as you please. Good Rents will pay for the whole thing. Other R trains will terminate at Ninth Avenue/36th Street. The morning put-ins do NOT have to start at 95th Street, the can start att 36th Street. The Layups can say the last stop is 36th Street, but the train will continue to 9th Avenue where the pre-layup fumigation actually occurs, and the 'dolts that cannot figgr out how they got there will go upstairs to ride on a (D) train. IT CAN BE DONE. BMT LINES: Trains from 96th Street (Yes the (Q) AND the (N) need to go there in order to compete with the LEX) and all 63td Street Trains run EXPRESS on Broadway and over the bridge. ALL 60th Street Trains run LOCAL on Broadway and through the tunnel. PROBLEM IS no matter what train serves Astoria, it has to have a yard somewhere. ASTORIA is on the BROADWAY LOCAL, and the local tracks go to 95th Street. That is that. That is how it is Built. That is how it should be run. YOU GOT PROBLEM WITH IDEA OF LION?.... NOBODY argues with a LION and lives to tell about it. ROAR |
