Routing freight down the Atlantic can be done through 9 track without concern of platform canopy damage, which was the problem with routing freights through the station. But it is possible, and you'll plenty of work trains doing that in the station during the weekends until they complete the new Jamaica station. There is no need now as there is no sidings down the Atlantic, LB and Far Rock, and no need to use the yard at Valley.
Just looking out the window, there is lots of evidence of many sidings east of Hall on the Atlantic, and there must have been alot of traffic at one time.
