Well, MTA is already talking about constructing a Queens super express

That's the problem: talk is cheap, but action costs a lot. Presently, I dismiss the talk as idle and premature speculation, with little or no details, and little or no effort spent on bettering the present system without much new construction.

It'd run along the LIRR to 63rd St tunnel like Broadway Lion has in his map. The only problem is Winfield Jct

Lots of problems. Winfield Jct is one. Getting these two outside tracks across Woodside and under Sunnyside Yard is another. Waiting for SAS to run far enough south to make it worthwhile is another.

For all this money, I think one has to ask: is it worth it compared to other projects?
