Re: My Route Suggestion of the Old Abandoned LIRR Rockaway Beach Branch

"No closer than the Brighton, Sea Beach, or just about all of our els."

That's true, but residents today will no longer put up with those close distances, just as they won't put up with early 20th Century methods of building Els anymore.

"There is already a rather large park around there. "

True satement but it does not help you. A rail line there is politically not possible (and fiscally not possible given the backlog of projects and available budget). A park and trail which expands on existing park property is far better than leaving the ROW the way it is.
