I get that same feeling on the 5:53 to KO, these people are not what I am used to seeing on the Mainline. And the best part is I have not had to use one piece...
For about a month now, I have been losing some posts into the vague unknown. It is not just with this group, but other Yahoo groups as well. I mean, I don't...
Her message to LIRR: 'Fill in that gap' BY EMERSON CLARRIDGE Newsday Staff Writer September 30, 2006, 7:40 PM EDT Carol Berman screamed out for help from the...
For the last two days Yahoo! has been very delayed, and I did lose one message. The message I lost was using the new "beta editor" - but other than that it...
I have taking to changing trains at Jamaica (in the AM) to go the FBA even though it makes my commute (in theory) a little longer. It's true that there is a...
No way. But I still say the "gap" issue is not a platform issue but a per-car issue. I saw it again on the 5:04 yesterday and the transfer to WH after. One...
You, and all LIRR commuters, are already paying for it. The legal costs and settlements have been there for many years. You are also correct - in that the gap...
As I said before - you are already paying for it. I think it would be very interesting to see a breakdown of the LIRR/MTA legal costs and just how much they...
Everyone in the state of New York is paying for it, as the LIRR does not run at a profit. The tax monies collected by the MTA contribute to these settlements...
Yes, taxpayers and commuters are paying for it - unfortunately commuters can pay more than the average taxpayer as they get a double hit (fares and taxes). ...
all the lawsuits and settlements have got to be costing the average LIRR monthly commuter more than $25 a month i would venture. If i knew that $25 extra per...
Even if you think the $25 a month is what is being spent on legal issues, no matter how much you spend, you are not going to eleminate it all. For all we ...
Hey Mr Beach, once in a while the govt actually does something good for us citizens that it's fleecing. Remember, mr beach sir...."I'm from the government and...
Forgive my previous post phil but i was taught by a comedian that you cant reuse someone's jokes or one liners- now for the serious stuff---and this is true i...
I might not be a smart man but I think its for parades. But on a more serious note, that is out of control. I have looked at my bill in a good bit of detail...
all 116 wont be itemized. i was told by a former nassau county official thats its "lumped in" in one of the categories..i will ask him to find out for me....
And, in a similar way, I am sure there are many LIRR items as worthy as a "parade tax" that are buried and lumped together in various MTA/LIRR budget items....
Question that is sort of related - in a way - I usually catch the 7:10 am Jamaica to FBA express and as we pull into the terminal, the conductor goes through...
Listen everyone, the gaps between the platform and the train are caused by one thing and one thing only, THE EQUIPMENT. Every piece of equipment on the...

If I could just go back to the issue of paying for the gap to be fixed for a moment, no matter if the solution was fixing the platforms or the more obvious...
At this point we do not have an accurate idea of the legal costs, so all this is just guesswork. Is there a line item in the MTA LIRR budget that lists legal...
I know this is off-topic but for the last 2-3 days this site has been VERY SLOW even though my broadband setup is working fine-i had it checked. I cant get...
... Whoa... ...It is clear my point was taken the wrong way. First, I do not walk between the cars, period! I am not stupid - after commuting to FBA for years,...
I am not a lawyer so I cannot offer any kind of legal opinion. However there are some issues that would pertain to a hypothetical situation. If there is a...
