Richmond Hill...Belmont Park...Rosedale...Montauk BranchThe Jamaica shuttles would need more investment than the Willets Pt-Bayside shuttle. That's why I separated them. Of course, the MTA may screw up Willets Pt to provide LGA access. Any of the above can be thru-routed to Atlantic Terminal and the new Platform F at Jamaica. I agree. However, MTA planning is very short range. Their object is to preclude further expansion. Then consider what equipment could be used and still conform to FRA regs. These would be regular LIRR equipment with LIRR crews. The fare arrangement would make it a subway. Place SBS machines at the stations. The SBS machines dispense a ticket that's given to the conductor. The Metrocard then provides a free "out of system" transfer, when entering the subway at Willets Pt or Sutphin-Archer. |
