Once again not really. There are light rail vehicles that are compatible. Like New Jersey’s River Line. It all depends on the M.T.A. in the end.

In any case you do not have to build anything on top of them. Just build an arch bridge so it would go over them.

Yup. Even did a Street View. It is just the cemetery entrance then a parking lot behind that.

https://pin.it/1UT8auM Plus I am not suggesting tearing up graves. There is a section that is empty between Metropolitan Avenue, and JGN Construction.

Yes, but street running means dealing with NIMBY’s.

Also I do not understand the purpose of street running. They have enough room to build a bridge over All Faith’s Cemetery.

I am hoping that the Nippon Sharyo DMU’s get used on the Interborough Express. They are FRA compliant. It makes it useful so that future extensions can cross the Hells Gate Bridge into the Bronx.

You want to really threaten Albany, and Washington D.C.? Threaten to shut down the Subway System. The Politicians will give in, because Politicians will care about the votes. They don't want a City of 8 million people angry at them.

The R.O.W. is open cut so it can be built above it, and the 63rd Street Tunnel was built for it anyway. The is just too cheap to spend the extra $400 million in building it .

Nope. You can't do this. Skip stop service is not similar to express, or local service, and would require the removal of the . Not just that, but it wouldn't work out well for the either. In fact a better idea would be to end skip stop service .

Here's an idea. Build that God damn IND Queens Boulevard Super Express, and move the , and the future Second Avenue service into those tracks, move the into the express tracks, and then move the into the local tracks which did allow for future extensions into Eastern Queens.

When I mean rush hour I mean limited service. It could even be one train per hour. People don't really care

Here's my proposal. Whitehall Street to Astoria-Ditmars Boulevard except for rush hours when the runs to Bay Parkway. No late night, or weekend service. When in service it will run as the Broadway local at all times.

I am more focused on the attention of finishing the Second Avenue Subway in the first place. Instead of just coming up with random ideas how about waiting till the Second Avenue Subway is complete first? Phase 3, and phase 4 hasn't even happened yet, and we are talking about expanding it already

What's sad is that it's an 8 mile subway line. In other countries this did be bigger, and almost done by now.........
