The N/W are packed as it is and are severely limited by the Ditmars Terminal, which limits it to 15 because of the lack of tail tracks, and the slow-speed crossovers. As it is, a staircase is closed making the platforms and mezzanine really congested. They have been looking into adding crossovers to allow trains at Astoria Boulevard. The long-term solution is to extend it to LGA with a yard over ConEd. If only Amazon could chip in for these improvements-The BMT Amazon Line. |
