Of course, build any extant corridor as LRT and say goodbye to any other kind of rail links to/from the island, because . . . Yeah sure, because SIers will flock to a train into NYC via the AK Draw. I'm sure they'll be thrilled to sit on a Comet for an hour as their train winds out from NYP to Tottenville. . . . is never gonna happen. It's a hell of a lot more feasible than the tunnel pipe dream and a whole lot more usable than any FRA line across AK Draw to NYP. For a billion dollars the MTA could have transit down to the SI Mall, or for 2-3 billion dollars they could tie the SIRT into the R train, merely bypassing the ferry. |
