Posted by Joe on Mon Mar 12 13:50:10 2018, in response to What to do when the doors don't open, posted by Andrew Saucci on Sat Mar 10 21:59:12 2018. Years ago, I attended a railroad club meeting in New York and met an older fan who was returning to Wantagh with me. He confidently led me downstairs in Penn and onto a Ronkonkoma train. Chatting all the time, we recognized our error around Hollis. At Hicksville, he phoned his wife to rescue us.--- The instruction I've given friends before boarding the LIRR: Look for a trainman and ask, "Is this the train to (destination)?" At Penn, you have to be wary of Port Wash trains. At each ticket-check, say to the trainman, "Will this car open at (destination)?" My wife also asks, "Is this the 3rd car in the train? If not, which?" That helps me locate her as I meet her. She phones me which car she is riding in. --- I use ticket-check time to get a reassurance. |
