Posted by Broadway Lion on Tue Mar 11 10:33:58 2008, in response to Re: The LION's Plan: Was: Re-Open LIRR 'White Pot Junction, posted by trainsarefun on Tue Mar 11 00:08:52 2008. :00 EXP to JFK:01 LCL to Far Rock :05 EXP to LGA :06 LCL to FLB :10 EXP to JFK :11 LCL to Rock Park :15 EXP to LGA :16 LCL to FLB :20 EXP to JFK :21 LCL to Far Rock :25 EXP to LGA :26 LCL to FLB :30 EXP to JFK :31 LCL to Rock Park :35 EXP to LGA :36 LCL to FLB :40 EXP to JFK :41 LCL to Far Rock :45 EXP to LGA :46 LCL to FLB :50 EXP to JFK :51 LCL to Rock Park :55 EXP to LGA :56 LCL to FLB And if more frequent services to the Rocks are kneaded, LION would SPLIT the train at Broad Channel and send the front to Far Rock and the Back to Rock Park. The Rock Park train would get back to the Channel first so that T/O would take the train to Javits, while the Far Rock T/O would take the next train to the Park. The FLB trains are only stopping at the new large Park-and-Ride Facilities, and are not making neighborhood stops. The purpose of this service is to keep cars out of Manhattan. FLB trains follow the LIE and are not particularly well sited to residential access. Park and ride facilities start at $15.00 a day for parking (including city bound train fare) and increase by $3.00 for each successively closer facility that one parks at. The Rockaway trains also make stops on the Old Rock alignments as a bone to the NIMBYs in said neighborhoods. ROAR |
