I don't know about the LIRR, but at NJT, a ticket that requires a transfer or multiple transfers is supposed to be cancelled by the trainman on the last train of the journey, regardless of whether the ticket was punched previously or actually used previously. For example, if you had a ticket from NY Penn to Westfield (which requires a transfer in Newark), and they either never came through to punch the ticket between NY & Newark, or you decided to take PATH to Newark instead, the ticket must be cancelled anyway on the Newark to Westfield train. It's considered a "continuous trip" ticket, and it's supposed to be no good after the final leg of the journey. If you decided to take PATH or somebody drove you to Newark, that was your choice... |
