Re: Lower Montauk Branch Passenger Rail Study (Final Report 2018) could cost over $2 Billion

The LIRR's original charter has nothing to do with the Lower Montauk branch as the LIRR's original charter was from Brooklyn to Greenport. The Lower Montauk was built by the South Side Railroad of Long Island, which later merged with the LIRR. The SSRLI no longer exists under any charter.

Of course, why would the LIRR's charter have any effect on one piece of railroad that it owns and not another? This also contradicts your claim elsewhere in the thread that it is a covenant with the property owners.
