Posted by NIMBYkiller on Sun Mar 9 23:38:34 2008, in response to Re: Thus Spake the LION: Re: Re-Open LIRR 'White Pot Junction, posted by Edwards! on Sun Mar 9 20:04:46 2008. Seriously, LIRR is useful to only Howard Beach. Which if it wasn't for the need of faster Rockaway transport, I'd say is reason enough for making it LIRR. BUT, the Rockaways do need a faster way in, and the A train isn't gonna provide it. Q53 riders just got the royal screw job by having all the stops added(though it does help the Q11 big time), so that quick way into midtown is out now.Also, using airtrain on the ROW is a poor idea because then you can't serve the local neighborhoods. Perhaps, since the ROW was 4 tracks wide, you could run airtrain down the middle later on, but for now, it's subway time(unless you can get LRT across the 59th St into the 2nd Av trolley terminal) |
