There are always 2 extra crews for Mets games. They both bring people to and from the games. Getting to the games is fine. You probably don't even notice. ...
I’d have to look at the PC and see exactly where you’d turn a train around at Woodside, but my concern with the scoots is that you couldn’t necessarily...
That’s what I say, there is NO EXCUSE, except cost, why a Scoot can’t be run, you only need ONE train, of maybe six cars!! I too REFUSE to call it ANYTHING...
... When I lived In Flushing, I attended MANY games, and now that I live on LI, I have traveled to Shea both ways, driving and by train/subway. Don't get me...

The Long Island's public affairs department does send press releases advising customers that "extra train service will be provided after the game". Since the...
From my point of view the real problem with Shea service is the location of Shea relative to the Main Line. A connector that would allow service from east of...

I have been going to Shea for over five years now, and I have NEVER seen additional trains through the Shea stop EXCEPT when the playoffs were at Shea, and...
casey, when i went to suny new paltz,rather than take the bus from np to the port authority which was a $35 r/t even in those days,i would try and catch the...
I don't think so, back in the late 1990's (1997-1999) when i used to go to college upstate if i was visiting home for the weekend i would take the LIRR to penn...
That's your opinion and thankfully the city didn't listen to you. The crap you speak so highly of seems to agree with me. We're not concerned with you :) ... ...
Perhaps that's a new or LIRR thing. For a long time it was $20 and 40 only. ... From: casey_jones_vi <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:07:56...

The parade should have still been held on Saturday. The city is clogged enough as it is with slow, dim-witted commuters, tourists, and other crap during the...

That was the point I was making to Phil - you can't get a low-use card from a station machine so expecting a small or non-existent line from the "spammers" is...
