What if they doubled the height of the LIRR storage yard and built a lead ramp and built terminal station platforms for LIRR so capacity could be freed up in Penn? Some LIRR (and M-N once ESA is done) could terminate at a new Hudson Yards terminal after slipping around Penn to the south on a new bypass track. Just a thought. I wonder if MTA has even thought of this? If logistics require maybe the current at grade yard could be converted to platforms and the storage yard above.
