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

Whereas the Rockaway line, which you did not mention in your second system of pie in the sky money pits, at least would have a clear purpose and an actual ridership if rail was relaid there.

The Rockaway Beach Line is another project that duplicates existing service. It would increase the percentage of Queens residents within 1/2 mile of a subway stop from 47.3% to 47.9%. It would have no effect of providing closer service for residents currently at 1.25 or more miles from a subway stop. That percentage would remain 74.7%.
