"The problem with electrification to Yaphank is that it doesn't make it any more desirable than Ronkonkoma, since the single track will limit service dramatically (unless a passing siding is introduced)."Another option is for LIRR to consider whether double-tracking should be extended beyond Huntington. I do not assume that an electrification project means ONLY third rail installation. It means electrification plus whatever track configuration changes (sidings or double track) needed to effectively use the electrification. |
