Lower Montauk with so many grade crossings?Huh???? There are no more grade crossings on the Lower Montauk than there are on the Hempstead, Ronkonkoma, Mainline, Huntington, Far Rockaway, West Hempstead, Far Rockaway, or even Port Washington lines! What do the few grade crossings on the Lower Montauk have to do with anything? And why would the lower montauk have to be electrified at all? it's mostly for freight, which doesn't need electrification. Plus, the C-3's are nowhere near ready for retirement. They could be put to use with new electric locomotives (especially if catenary was to be used), or even sold to another company if they wanted to. |
