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

Richmond Hill would also need 3rd rail, restored signals system, and PTC, as well as lease it back from NY&A.

Belmont Park would be hard without a flyover junction westbound.

The Montauk Branch tracks separate at the site of the old Springfield Gardens station. Perhaps stick a relay track there.

Rosedale would be hard. Eastbound Atlantic Branch track could spread south, then stick a relay track between them. Then run feeder buses to Green Acres.

Any of the above can be thru-routed to Atlantic Terminal and the new Platform F at Jamaica.

Thenj consider what equipment could be used and still conform to FRA regs.
