Reply to comment by stewartm0205 in East Side Access won't be finished by 2022, but trains to Grand Central still planned for this year by sulaymanf

I think Chambers St originally allowed for LIRR access many years ago. It would be amazing if they could bring that back.

There is the PATH line from PENN station that goes further down. Don’t know if the LIRR could make use of it.

It did, but that was a century ago and that was done by running Atlantic Branch trains over the Williamsburg Bridge. The track connection for that was physically severed long ago.
