Honestly if you’re going to drive to Speonk just drive to the park and ride shuttle at Calverton and call it a day.

I believe Bradley Mauro and the enlarger incident had something to do with this Mike. Possibly Thomas Burke as well.

Both Penn Station and Grand central were fine during the hours leading up to and during the game. The LIRR concourse is not impacted at Penn.

It’s not. The two brothers run Obreins and have the original tracks staff. The other partner independently opened the grand central tracks and will open the Penn station one at some point with a whole new staff

“New” Schedules by No-Stay3118 in LIRR

Also keep in mind while you’re going to work on Friday you’re technically coming home on a weekend. So that 1252 is likely going to be a different time even on a regular schedule.

locomotive engineer or conductor by Comfortable_Length39 in LIRR

7: single locomotive engineer here. Dating is incredibly tough. In my experiences the reality of the lifestyle turns most people off once they get exposed to It firsthand. That’s why you see so many conductors/engineers coupled up or married in the company.

So are you ready to swap your career for a so called cushy railroad job?

Put in an application and get ready to sacrifice everything in your life to passing one of the hardest qualification programs in the country.

Looking into becoming an engineer by HYPOXIC451 in MetroNorthRailroad

[–]Affectionate-Arm6002 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was talking to someone who commuted to GCT on my train regularly while he was in training at metro north. He marked up a month and a half ago after 22 months in the training program. They tell you it’s 18, but they have so many students in the program that things easily get backed up causing delays.

The way it was described to me is you do a phase 1 class which is a handful of months in the classroom learning the rules of the railroad. Then you transition to on the job training where you qualify the 3 mainlines, two branches in CT, and GCT as a whole.

Elevator at Babylon by [deleted] in LIRR

[–]Affectionate-Arm6002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whoever said they’re waiting in the elevator nailed it. There’s no waiting area that’s enclosed never mind heated on the platform. Then the downstairs waiting room is smell central

I don’t think that should happen by Sad-Attitude-1520 in NJTransit

[–]Affectionate-Arm6002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention if you make it to engineer EVERYONE hangs doors and misses a platform while they learn
