The latest Google Earth satellite imagery (April 2021) shows a new switch just west of the (former) Suburban Propane switch. There are/were track panels staged on the ground just to the south.

It's not every day you see a new switch cut into the LIRR. Is this even more Gershow? Something else?

Yes, even more Gershow. They got cleared to move C&D( like Coastal) so another switch installed facing point eastbound west of their facility. Not sure when and if they'll begin shipping. The old Synergy gas switch installed in early 90's never saw one propane car .
