I'm saying that the LIRR should care about the safety and convenience of their customers. Where they have a scheduling issue, they should address the scheduling issue.They currently have (and apparently have had for quite some time) a scheduling issue that causes customers who have arrived on time for the 9:03 train to miss the 9:03 train. To me, that's a problem. The solution is either to adjust the schedule or to build an overpass. Adjusting the schedule is easier said than done. Moving either train by a minute or two just recreates the problem one station up or down the line. An interesting irony here is that the train Mitch is talking about has an absurdly long dwell time at Jamaica -- 5 minutes, longest in the system. So despite all the effort to be on time headed westbound (northeast) from Far Rock to Valley Stream, it then sits and waits for 5 minutes at Jamaica. |
