It's already a circus with the amount of people using it. There are just too many cars, and most of those people just come there because that's where the service is.They want to alleviate that a bit, by diverting some of those people to Yaphank, or wherever the new yard and station will be. It's silly to have people driving all the way to Ronkonkoma, when they are coming from points east. He made it pretty clear that they are "done" with ROnkonkoma, there will be no further parking or improvements made there. They have set their goals on electrifying eastward toward Yaphank. They already have some funding due to the loss of the potential new yard and further electrification on the Port Jeff line, which has been scrapped. |
