You are full of beans.Only a minute fraction of LIRR trains will stop there in any event. Only a minute fraction of NJT trains would pass there let alone stop there. And only a minuscule minute fraction of rail patrons would want to use both companies for the same trip. As for this LION and his pride, we will travel into NYP on what ever train we choose, and there transfer to whatever other train we require at a time that is pleasing to us. [As if the LION had any use for either of those railroads in the first place.] The point is *so* moot it is pointless to pursue it under any circumstance. Now there *could* be a need, so we see, for NJT customers to be delivered to Sunnyside for their employment in Long Island City, if any, and likewise for LIRR customers for employment in the swamps of New Jersey, so direct (non-connecting) service may be interesting, but of course the Hudson Tunnels have not the capacity for this business, and the East River Tunnels are only a little better since NJT already has trains running to layup there. But as a reliable customer service? LION cannot see it. As a matter of plain fact, the EAGLE has told me that he cannot see it either, and EAGLE has the sharpest eyesight of all the beasties. ROAR |
