I doubt MTA will see it that way. They seem quite certain on closing the station to passenger service. The only way that I can see that the old loop station will remain open for service is if the new station ends up being a huge flop, which it won't be at this point, although into the future, it's designed capacity constraint of 24 tph should come back soon enough to rear its ugly head. The plan for limited capacity is so brilliant that only one person on has defended it, and his claim to either rational intelligence or sanity is quite dubious.

I imagine that the loop will see service run past it in certain situations which require alternate routes. But the station itself will almost certainly be closed to passenger service, I think.
