Being that the Pt. Washington Line is one of the most busiest LIRR lines in the system, I am surprised that there is still single track between just east of Great Neck and just west of Pt. Washington. Why is that? It seems that the Pt. Washington Line would be a great candidate for having double track the rest of the way from Great Neck to Pt. Washington. This would help provide more reverse peak service on the Pt. Washington Branch. It would probably also help the trains run a little more on time. I was doing a lot of railfanning today out there and saw that multiple trains were a little behind schedule but nothing too bad.
