I probably know the answer to this, knowing the stranglehold and how protective LIRR remains of its system... but the thought crossed my mind and I'd like some of your thoughts/input.
There are several "freight only " lines such as the Buswhick, Bay Ridge, and to a degree - Lower Montauk. Since the LIRR barely uses these lines - if at all - and they are in a state of perpetual decay, what are the odds the LIRR would sell them to Anocostia & Pacific or a major Class 1 like CSX?
Or is this *completely* out of the realm of possibility? Like I said... just dreaming.
