Thanks gamer4616 and UN Block. I did see the Secondary track had 3rd rail installed and the switch was lined from station track 1 to the secondary track when passing on station track 2.

PF: The Hempstead Branch between Queens and Garden (13.3 and 18.7 from LIC - 5.4 miles) may haveVery interesting to hear. Do you happen to know of any other American or Canadian commuter rail routes which are deliberately "wrong railed" like this?
the two tracks "reversed" to operate opposite of how they are are run now which will end directional conflict.
Four Hempstead Branch stations will be directly affected by this change-Floral Park, Stewart Manor, Nassau
Boulevard and Garden City. Service at Bellerose would be on the opposite side of the single island platform.
