"Only Rockaway was tackled because of the fire."

I'm not sure I understand this. The City had always intended to build a line to the Rockaways but that plan stalled over money. When the LIRR decided to abandon the Rockaway line south of Ozone Park, the TA grabbed the chance to build a Rockaway line on the cheap.

Is that what you meant?
