Posted by Terrapin Station on Sun Nov 11 01:41:33 2007, in response to Re: SI residents on MTA Fare Hike, posted by (SIR) North Shore Line on Sun Nov 11 00:41:30 2007. The (1) train is already underground in Manhattan.OK, but that's no big benefit. The SIR is not-so in SI. It's pretty darn close. And then that would still require 3 transfers for most coming to/from SI (Bus->SIR across water->Subway). The issue is you not f*cking up the IRT. By sending the SIRT under the water, you avoid f*cking up IRT service in any way due to any problems that arise. Give SIRT more trains, new trains even, and let them run from SI to Lower Manhattan. But I of course think that idea is NUTS. IF anything, the connection would be to Brooklyn, a bottomless pit (source) of money is found. |
