Was it a waste to bring the LIE to Riverhead? I think so. Keeping electric LIRR out of Greenport so they can't compete with road?Uhhhhh, YES it's an utter waste of resources. There are WAY more pressing projects that need to be done before you waste valuable, and limited funds on electric in Greenport. You have the third mainline track, ESA, double tracking to Ronkonkoma, double tracking to Port Jefferson. Electrification to Patchogue. Electrification to Oyster Bay. Electrificication to Speonk. Station rehabs. Parking lot rehabs. Train replacement. All sorts of things that are WAY more pressing than 'Electrification to Greenport". So YES, it is a total waste of valuable and limited transit funds at this time. |
