Hey everybody. I have been hearing rumors recently that once the east side access tunnels are completed in a couple of years. MTA is going to try and merge its current operations together(Metro North and LIRR) And then try and purchase part of if not most of the NEC from Amtrak.So basically it would be sate ran by MTA from Albany to NYP,NYP to Montauk(SSYD included)Metro North is already planning to come into NYP and runs up to NHV. I know how rumors are so I was just wondering what anybody else heard or things of this.
