I don't call the LIRR high frequency (outside rush hour). MNRR is the closest we have to true all day high frequency with almost all Westchester stops served at least twice an hour, and some with twice an hour express service. Conversely, the only Nassau county stops served twice an hour are the Port Washington branch, Mineola, and stops which happen to have multiple branches serving them.Since there's hardly any staffed stations anymore, there's basically a TVM and no human to talk to. So a newbie ending up on a train without a ticket is pretty likely. Oddly enough on turnstile based systems, stations are typically staffed, making them even more user friendly. |
