Posted by NIMBYkiller on Mon Mar 10 01:01:19 2008, in response to Re-Open LIRR 'White Pot Junction, posted by NEPONSIT2006 on Fri Mar 7 18:00:11 2008. How about this:Phase 1: Extend V train to Ozone Park-101st St with stops at Fleet St, Parkside-Metropolitan Av, Brooklyn Manor-Jamaica Av, Woodhaven-Atlantic Av, Ozone Park-101st St Phase 2: SAS to Hanover Sq is finished Phase 3: Queens Super Express along LIRR from 63rd St tunnel to Rego Park with portal for an LIE branch for later. Extend branch of SAS from Hanover Sq through 63rd St, down super express with stops at Woodside, Winfield, Rego Park, and then the local Rockaway line stops all the way to Beach 116th St Phase 4: Connect middle express track/tracks to airtrain. Have some sort of hyrbrid cars(hybrid b/c I'm still not convinved the typical LIRR cars can handle those curves) run the HB branch, non-stop to ENY via the center tracks of the Rockaway, and the Atlantic Av line. After ENY, on to Flatbush, MAYBE with a stop at Nostrand for airport workers Phase 5: Continue "airtrain" express tracks to White Pot Jct with provisions for connection to LIRR mainline for service to Manhattan Here is teh map: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&ll=40.694175,-73.813019&spn=0.22126,0.862427&z=11&msid=104471795667235493331.0004480d4f046626a3ef4 |
