Um, No.After we build the Myrtle-Fifth Avenue Subway, with its branch going out Northern Boulevard, the need for high capacity on the (7) will be diminished. Thus the (R) train, running through the 60th Street tunnel would serve it nicely, and could even live in the Corona Yard. This eliminates those two sharp curves by the bridge. The NEW route of the (7) would then come out of the S'way tunnel, follow LIE for a short way, picking up some new stops at some new Park and Rides, and then running express to Kennedy Airport via the Lower Montauk ROW and the old LIRR Rockaway ROW. The new and re-vitalized (W) train will serve Astoria to 9th Ave in Bklyn. (Local In Manhattan) The (N) would cover 71st Street via the 63rd Street Tunnel and the (Q) would do 125th Street ROAR |
