Talk:Cedarhurst Cut-off

The LIRR's lease was set to expire in 1901. Maybe that's why it went bankrupt, though I'd assume the LIRR kept operating north of Springfield. Was there a piece south of Cedarhurst, operated independently as a streetcar line? --NE2 08:06, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

According to, the NY&R from Cedarhurst to Far Rockaway was used as another track or a new alignment for the ex-South Side branch. shows a branch that may be a remnant of it. --NE2 08:15, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Long Beach Branch trains along the Cedarhurst Cut-Off
This is still bothering me; Is there anybody with any info on the Long Beach Branch previously sharing trackage with the Montauk and West Hempstead Branches on the Cedarhurst Cut-Off? I've read a few things about this line going there as far back as the late-1950's, and a few things about it on Main Line station articles between Jamaica and Rockaway Junction, but I can't find too much else on when it was moved there, or realigned to the Atlantic Branch. So who can tell me when LB trains ran there, and when they stopped? DanTD (talk) 14:27, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
