Re: A new topic for discussion, electrification to Port Jeff and Patchague

They would still need a yard part way to Port Jeff. There is no need to run all those rush hour Huntington electrics to Port Jeff. Kings Park Hospital site would be a good place. The Huntington East siding simply becomes the double-track to Greenlawn, whose passing siding and its station platform are now abandoned. They could also stash a train or two for layup on the old Northport Branch.

While they are at it, eliminate the Larkfield Road grade-crossing in East Northport. That was a big issue in the 1960's, but they would have had to condemn 10 stores and they shot it down. The road gridlocks everything around it whenever a train passes.

For once, tell all the NIMBY's to go fuck themselves.
