I was replying to your statement that a spur off the Astoria Line was feasible. Notice the the first line which repeated your quote in italics.Your spur would have joined the Astoria Line south of the Astoria Blv station. This would have reduced service to the Astoria Blvd and Ditmars Blvd stations. I pointed out that passenger traffic at both these stations far exceeded that of the LGA spur. Additional Astoria Line trains would be required to service these stations. However, the Astoria Line is already maxed out because of traffic in the 60th St Tunnel. Therefore, any spur off the Astoria Line really isn't feasible. |
