MNRR to Penn is absolutely coming. It was a stroke of brilliance adding in the Bronx stops - while not ideal from the railroad's perspective (with no stops they could get away with no additional tracks and use less trains to serve it, not to mention not having to amend the agreement with CT about stopping in the Bronx), the Bronx politicians are now "on board" with getting this done, along with Westchester and the entire state of Connecticut.Too bad they cut the Astoria stop, or they'd have some Queens pols too. I also suspect a Northern Blvd stop would have been well patronized. As it stands now Queens has reason to side with the LIRR on keeping their slots. |
