More than six months after Hurricane Sandy completely flooded train tracks in the Rockaways, A train service to the area will be restored early?on May 30. The rebuilding work?which involved 1,500 feet of new track, miles of re-wiring, and repairs at two washed-out stations?actually came in ahead of schedule. Considering the major mess Sandy left that subway line, well documented in photos, that's pretty impressive. And just in time for beach season, too. [Second Avenue Sagas; photo via SAS]
