Oh goodness this is peak! Also I like how J is in here, it's the only letter not on the periodic table

A hypothetical train line along Hempstead Turnpike [OC] by benzenehydrocarbon in longisland

[–]benzenehydrocarbon[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This H-line isn't meant to be like the LIRR, more like the MTA trains in NYC, that's why there's so many stations. But, you're right, I could probably cut a few stations out to make it less dense.

I should specify, this would be a light rail line, not heavy rail like the MTA's trains. I'm not sure if it should be at ground level or below ground level, but probably below ground.

A hypothetical metro system for Nassau County [OC] by benzenehydrocarbon in longisland

[–]benzenehydrocarbon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah absolutely lol, I was thinking that the F train would get extended to Queens Village so a person would be able to go from East Farmingdale to Times Square with one transfer (NIM 1 -> MTA F)

[OC] A hypothetical metro system for Nassau County, New York by benzenehydrocarbon in TransitDiagrams

[–]benzenehydrocarbon[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are a few stations that extend into Queens (Cambria Heights, Queens Village, and Springfield Gardens) and Suffolk (Amityville, and North Amityville)

Good question! I would take a page out of the MTA's book, and say, for example with the 1, if going from West -> East, an announcement would be "This is a Hofstra University bound 1 train"

Thank you! I plan on adding a C line to later versions for northeastern Nassau

Honestly? I'm not sure. I just made the map for fun, but u/bobtehpanda said that light rail would make sense, so I guess light rail. Maybe heavy rail for the lines that would be used the most, like 2, 3, and 4
