You have to remember that what is the Montauk Branch was built by the South Side Railroad (not the LIRR). It originally was built from Long Island City to Patchogue where it terminated.Not quite true. The SSRR originally went from Bushwick to Patchogue. The western terminal did not become LIC until later, after the SSRR had been assimilated into the LIRR and a connection from Fresh Pond to the old NY&Flushing RR line at Haberman was made. |
