It should be noted that the LIRR is one of the ONLY US Railroads still operating under its original Charter. It was Chartered in 1834 and has been in continuous operation since. of course its gone bankrupt a few times along the way but that's normal.
I'm gonna be the first on the scene for both of these projects when they're done. I found a permanent home in Ronkonkoma, and I am looking forward to seeing this Mid-Suffolk Train Yard.
How come you do all of that when you can take the (2) all the way to 34th? It takes you right there. Besides, more Ronkonkoma trains originate from Penn Station than Atlantic Terminal.
***** what your said i a pipe dream. I wish it was not but it is. All but 110 and 231 which could realistically on budget use SBS and bus lanes. 25a they recently split up the n20 to the n20G and N20G/H to cut wait times. All other lines are impossible either due to budget exsisting ridership numbers and/or parking
yes i know im looking at the local budget Nassau County recently cut 6 bus routes. People who use Public transit are treated as second class citizens. And that unfortunatly is not going to change anytime soon. As car culture in entrenced it suburbia. And i also have a counter argument the MTA the NYC transit system is in debt even with full capacity busses and subways. Projects come in always over budget and late. And transit fares have increased over the years. Most bus routes are not effecient with usally 2 or 3 busses coming at the same time. Now I am a transit rider who lives in NYC I take the subway and the lirr to work every day so i understand your point. Is also understand US transit systems including the MTA are underfunded. And as you said it all has to with culture the rich snobs who run the legislature who wont set foot on a bus
RCTNextGeneration Right, higher taxes so we can't afford to use the new services if and when they will come into usage.And we,the tax payers will be blamed for their mismanagement an incompetence as usual!SCREW THEM!!!!!
there arent any planes of a third rail east of baylon or huntington ever that was never true to bein with idk where your getting your info from but thats no t gonna happen anytime soon
The three were cleared a few weeks ago and are piled up in the place where the new yard will be...so...knowing how the MTA keeps to schedules...probably a few years.
To BAD nobody but, nobody--ask How come not better service EAST of Ronkonkoma--pay attention--the LIRR is about to pack up its weekend service EAST of Ronkonkoma for the winter-yea, right based on low ridership--B.S. Look at the rotten service out that way--that why--you couldn't go to the City and come back the same day--??? maybe give the track to the Atlantic railway?? Oh MY

Kevin Howard is g fsyyggf
I have no clue what that means.
Kevin Howard every major railroad in the world has gone bankrupt aleast once!
It would also be a great idea to improve the Hempstead yard, too.
I'm gonna be the first on the scene for both of these projects when they're done. I found a permanent home in Ronkonkoma, and I am looking forward to seeing this Mid-Suffolk Train Yard.
Exactly. I'm also impatient to see these new electric trains too.. it's my understanding that the Ronkonkoma branch is gonna get them..

Miss Jennifer Banks All branches are going to get the M9 train eventually
Like to see a Huntington yard, I can see areas over there where it can go without knocking down anything
LIRR has a choice of buying more m7s or possibly DM30's and switch it into electric mode (DE30 AC)
+HandsomeK P .....both the M7s and DM/DE30s have been out of production for more than a decade.
+Fan Railer M7 is a great train
Fan Railer Thats what the m9 will do
What good will any of it do without the third Main Line track between Jamaica and Hicksville?
not gonna help cant run more train anyway since the tunnels cannot handle anymore then now and east side is still many years away
third track is happening right now, very soon east side will happen
@@TheChachLINY east side access entrances and exits are at GCT right now! You can see them on the 42 St shuttle

When metro north goes to Penn Station it will be Easier because they could take Amtrak tracks there, they just need to make stations
They didn’t keep a 50ft barrier...you can see the trains from the road
Will this expansion completely replace the Ronkonkoma Yard, or will the Ronkonkoma Yard and Mid-Suffolk Yard remain separate from each other?
They better do something for raising the f ing fairs all the time!
So which branches will serve grand central directly?
Well they already do via the montauk branch but in runs to infrequently

what about the montauk line
LIRR Needs to upgrade Montauk Branch stations because it needs to look better and have 2 platforms and a heating and cooling waiting rooms
you mean the east side which is still 5 years or more away lets great real east side isnt gonna happen
Actually, it is happening.
Hahaha even with a global scamdemic throwing the MTA into the biggest deficit in history, ESA still managed to happen.
IOU
Get out of my state worst tax state
