If the GCP LGA extension were to ever be built I would abandon Ditmars station, partially out of pettiness, but mostly because there would probably be very little room if any to build a storage yard for the new extension, and the trackage to Ditmars would be more valuable as storage space than a revenue line at that point. During peak periods local trains could terminate at Astoria Boulevard and relay north of that station while express trains continue to LGA. Put-ins to LGA could also deadhead from Ditmars to Astoria and then reverse direction back to LGA if necessary. |
