Okay...

That what I figured...

Talking about what BUILT not whats PLANNED to be added.


If you are so upset about what NOT THERE...why not WRITE FIGHT..SCREAM whatever it is that YOU DO..for a station in OZONE PARK along the AIRTRAIN elevated?

Better than whining about it here.

Also..the MTA choose not to build the line to the Airport..for reasons that only they could answer...

But I can guess...

Money..
The 1968 PLAN FOR ACTION included a line along the former Rockaway line from the LIRR Main line..that would "share" space with the NYCTA A line from Librety avenue to Howard Beach..where the line would diverge to the MTA/NYCTA ROW to the AIRPORT PROPER.

As we BOTH know..the 1968 plan failed to product any real substantial routing..other than the small 6 miles of subway the combined 63rd/Archer projects bought about.

The City ran out of funds.

The Port Authority was better suited to build it...at the time they chose to..and it was THEIR CHOICE as to what kind of services would be provided...[Not a good choice,mind you]..


If your beef is with the MTA for NOT BUILDING the Airport line..then take it up with them...not whine to US about it.

Now if you want to talk SERIOUSLY..then Im game for it...
Station stops= WOODHAVEN..ENY..NOSTRAND..ALANTIC/FLATBUSH..METROTECH..
Terminal would be the WORLD TRADE CENTER...with the SAS diverting to it Water Street subway.
