No wonder why I refuse to give the LIRR my Credit/Debit Card. Once, fine. Twice, sh*t happens. This is ridiculous already: ================= Service Alert: ...

I know I have asked before about parking in Babylon station, parking fees, where the parking areas are for non-residents. But they were questions related only...
Lingcat, you're assuming the people in their IT Department actually know what they are doing. I'm sure if you asked them "why not test with some "dummy data"...
They were probably working on the production data because they do no testing at all and do not even have a test environment. The LIRR probably thinks that...
The LIRR is using GPS more and more. The M7's (supposedly) use GPS to determine where they are and then make announcements. The CBTC (Computer Based Train...
It is really quite simple. Why on earth would they track or keep the data? We complain all the time about the OTP, and we have pretty much all agreed that the...
This was pure joy this morning (extreme sarcasm!!). As always, problems are to be expected but it is how the LIRR works its way out of these problems that gets...
I was under the impression that the GPS on the M7s was one-way, implying that the trains have GPS receivers but that they don't transmit position information...
How about transmitting this info via the internet! CV is setting up wireless access points all over LI, the LIRR could use that to transmit the data...
They "tweak" the schedules at least two or three times a year. They move one train ahead or behind 2 or 3 minutes only makes problems elsewhere. The problem...
Parking in Babylon must be paid 24/7. You can park in the number spots with the white lines. The yellow lines are resident permit parking only. Make sure to...

Imagine the SERVICE that could be provided by the LIRR to the public and its customers if realtime delay information was available. Imagine if MANY third...
There are two different pieces of software both being pushed recently. One is software that will keep track of your speed, and notice where there are...
I believe the Diesel locos also have GPS - even though the CBTC signals are not in use yet. At the least they could do a store and forward type of data ...

Aren't the M-7s now the vast majority of trains? If you could real time data on say, 75% of your trains, isn't that a good start? Maybe a portable device...
How about we have the LIRR paint each loco and M7's car number in large numbers on top of the train - then we can let Google do the realtime performance via...
OK, the space tracking is a little "OUT THERE", but the other ideas make a lot of sense. There is no reason that a properly configured system, gathering...
