Re: $787K Study Seeks to Find Ways to Encourage Subway Riders to Ride LIRR and MNRR

Between the two railroads the MTA could have a half-billion dollars more each year, if a bridge needs to be widened, a grade crossing relocated, etc. it is not the end of the world.

And there are of course other benefits to longer platforms, including reduced crowding as people can spread out and sit in any car, and reduced dwell times and delays since you won't have to wait for people to walk up if they're in the wrong car.
