Re: Transfer mystery

While this continues to be unconfirmed theory on my part, my understanding is that there would have been no fare relationship between GBL and LIRR. The GBL transfer would be used only at one end or the other of the LIRR ride, with the LIRR ticket purchased separately.

Yes, that would mean that someone riding a bicycle from one end of the LIRR to the other could use the transfer, if they get there in time before the time the transfer expires, and if they have a plan on where to put their bicycle once they're finished using it. (Were buses regularly accepting bicycles at the time?)

I'm guessing it would also have been possible to wander over to Parsons Blvd, do some shopping or whatever along the way, hop the Q113, and still be able to use your transfer, depending on what the agreement was (if any) between GBL and JBL.
