Posted by #5 - Dyre Ave on Sun Mar 9 19:44:29 2008, in response to LIRR/Airtrain Solution Re: Re-Open LIRR 'White Pot Junction, posted by trainsarefun on Sun Mar 9 18:10:00 2008. Honestly, after reading this thread and the one about the Queens Super Express ("Sander Speech Highlights"), I think the MTA should build Super Express first. That way, they can have two extra tracks to relieve congestion on the E and F trains. Then they can look into introducing a new service from the Rockaways into the Queens Blvd line's mix. Because between the NIMBYs and the fact that the Rockaway service provisions connect to the QB local tracks at Rego Park (which wouldn't do anything to relieve the E or F nor would it necessarily give Rockaway riders a faster route to Manhattan) it just seems to make more sense to do Super Express first. Sending the R or the V down the old Rockaway line, without doing Super Express will completely overwhelm the E and F trains. |
