Re: oddball rail transit observations

With the LIRR as apparently hell-bent on killing Atlantic Terminal service as they are, why not convert it to subway operation? "IRT Atlantic Avenue Line" has a nice ring to it.

Not quite sure how you physically tie it into the subway (the BMT is in the way of a flyunder at Flatbush/Atlantic) but you could build a nice super-express service stopping at Nostrand and ENY, reopen Woodhaven, maybe toss in a couple of local stops, and terminate with an across-the-platform transfer at Jamaica a la PATH at Newark.
