Posted by Peter Rosa on Mon Apr 24 10:18:28 2006, in response to Re: The LIRR President Speaks, posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Mon Apr 24 09:34:23 2006. There is such chaos at that station [Ronkonkoma], that people pick up their coffee, bagel, newspaper at some store along their way between their home and the station to avoid the station itself. They then run out of their cars, and directly to the platforms, without stopping at the stores in the station. In the evening, it's the reverse, they run out of their trains, off the platforms and to their cars, and then drive away as quick as they can.Another problem is that the retail (newsstand, Dunkin' Donuts, bagel shop) is on the north side of the platforms along with the stationhouse, while the huge parking lot is on the south side. People who park in this lot have to trudge up and down one of the crossovers to reach the north-side retail. That can take too much time if you're in a hurry to catch a train, especially since there's no crossover at the east end of the plaforms. My LIRR/NYCT blog |
