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

Oops...hit post a bit too soon...

My biggest concern with restoring Rockaway is what type of rail service would operate on the branch. I’m definitely not in favor of restoring it as an LIRR branch as it was prior to its closing in 1962. It needs to be a transit service as opposed to a commuter service in other to attract ridership from the Woodhaven buses. And then, would it be an extension of the M or R, or would it be another subway or possibly a light rail/DMU train?
