You're really basing everything off a not to scale transit map?Are we really having this argument? You're telling me that the Oyster Bay Branch is a direct alignment between New York and the area that it serves? If you're having trouble, grab a ruler and starting drawing lines... The only thing they'd be getting "robbed" of is ridership, and those people live on the OB line anyway. It costs money to electrify, a lot of it, and these trips to get to the RR station are by automobile anyway. So is it a good idea to spend tens or hundreds of millions of dollars so that a few hundred or maybe a thousand people have slightly shorter drives? We will be taking the elevator to the lunar colony before that wasteful spending pays off. |
