Things I Want to Do[edit]

FORMER GOALS

Create a List of Long Island Rail Road precursors.
Convince somebody to translate Riverhead (LIRR station) to Polish.
Other former branches and possible competitors, if possible. If not, I'll stick to some trolley lines.
Reformat the section on stations with the same name to the List of Long Island Rail Road stations
Consider a line template for the Ronkonkoma and Greenport Branch
Find out the exact year of the closing date of the following stations;
- Bartlett's (LIRR station) (on Bellport Avenue between Medford & Yaphank)
- East Patchogue (LIRR station) (near the west end of Suffolk CR 36)
- East Quogue (LIRR station)
- Fire Place (LIRR station)
- Nichols Road (LIRR station)
- West Flushing (LIRR station)
- and probably others.
Verify the histories between Bellaire (LIRR station) and Queens Village (LIRR station).
Create a history chapter for any station articles that needs one.
Find a way to merge the S-Lines of former services, such as the former Montauk Branch at Long Island City (LIRR station) (the usual markups aren't working there for some reason)
Take as many pictures of LIRR stations as I possibly can.

Other[edit]

All articles on existing stations have been written, and while I don't believe all redlinks to former stations need articles, there has been a list of stations I've considered writing about, most of which were closed in 1939, when the LIRR wanted to eliminate grade crossings on the Atlantic Branch;

Autumn Avenue (LIRR station)
Bedford (LIRR station) (Due to the fact that it was shared by the Brooklyn, Flatbush and Coney Island Railway)
East Quogue (LIRR station) (Due to skirmishes between the community and LIRR)
Sumner Avenue (LIRR station)
Union Course (LIRR station)
Warwick Street (LIRR station)

Due to a recent crusade to eliminate systems, companies, etcetera from the names of station articles, I no longer have the desire to create these articles.
