UPDATE: Since I'm the one that is keeping track of work on the Ronkonkoma Branch, as you all know they have been doing rail/tie replacement of the original track (Westbound) by ripping it out and putting a new one in. Thus far, the rail/tie replacement work is completed from Farmingdale to DANCH Interlocking, meaning the track is completed and electrified. The track is currently having the third rail, brackets, insulators, and the covers installed past DANCH Interlocking, through Wyandanch, and going up the grade towards Deer Park Avenue where it will conclude at JS Interlocking. CWR has been laid for both tracks from Deer Park to Central Islip, with the CWR laid from JS Interlocking to where the second track was laid East of Brentwood for the Eastbound track, and CWR from JS Interlocking all the way to where the second track was laid East of Central Islip.
This will create single track service from POND to JS, and then go back to both tracks in service from JS Westward.
