Depends on how your proposed LIE el NYCT line would be constructed, I would think. You want to put it over the LIE, well, that's going to take a lot of money, I would think, and would even run the risk of closures on the roadway. Putting in stations would be very difficult, as well as the track connections to whatever trunk line/tunnels this line would use. Plus yard space, catwalks, signals, substations, power supply, etc. Look at the cost per mile of something like JFK AirTrain and then add on to that figure even further. |
