"Again, you are underestimating the allure of the one seat ride."No, you're overestimating it. Provide a same-platform transfer with a frequent schedule and a lot of people will be satisfied. "People that formerly used the Montauk and PJ lines" Lines with an even worse schedule than PJ if I recall correctly, and certainly no better. Electrify to Smithtown and provide matching diesel service and you'll see fewer people driving to Ronkonkoma and much busier diesel stations on the Port Jeff. |
