LGA Link N Train Posted November 18, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 18, 2018 I'm confused. Is this referring to a new company who will make trains for us or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GojiMet86 Posted November 18, 2018 Share #3 Posted November 18, 2018 No, what this is is the MTA building a new facility to receive railcars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first guess is that they're referring to 36-38th Street Yard. But at the same time, I don't know. Rail Yard in Astoria anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
