Of course the Rockaway Beach line covers a lot of stops already covered by another line - that's obvious. Besides serving some areas that don't have easy access to subway service, it also provides cross-Queens service for people in SE Queens to Queens Blvd and Queens Center. To otherwise do it by subway would be an impractical circuitous route, or it would be a long bus trip. On top of that, it would allow an increase in Queens Blvd local train service by providing an alternative terminal. |
