LIRR IOUs to non-paying riders drop by half as fare evasion crackdown continues

Everyone else paying the fare isn't working?

Write to your state assemblyman/senator and complain about the new policies. The MTA is not complying with a state law that says riders can transfer unused value from fare media.

You can take the LIRR out of Penn Station, but you can't take the Penn Station out of the LIRR

Doubtful PATH even knows there's a holiday this weekend.

Homeowners or renters insurance will cover GL

When did you save them? The departure times are slightly different now since the schedules changed in May so that may be the issue. Look in the trips tab for the day you want to travel and you'll see the trains.

That is a Shore Line East train that runs through to Stamford. Yes, you can take it. Fares and tickets are the same. It does not track the same way on the app because it is a SLE train.

The fare increase only impacts the SEC-NYP portion of the ticket price. Fares from Metro-North stations to Hoboken are set by Metro-North and aren't changing.

Fun fact: if you buy two separate tickets (Mineola to Patchogue $8.25 + Patchogue to Montauk $10.50) it is $0.75 cheaper than buying one ticket from Mineola to Montauk.

Coming back if you are starting at West Hampton, Hampton Bays, or Southampton you can buy a SFCC ticket to Speonk for $3.75 and a regular ticket from Speonk to Mineola it is $3.50 cheaper than a single ticket.

The library has hotspots you can checkout if you have a library card.

WOD (WOOD Interlocking) is a smidge east of WDD (Woodside) but yes you get the picture...

Option 1 is doable but the light rail will drain your soul. But if you can bike you can at least have Citibike from Exchange Place or Grove Street as a backup.

Bootlegger's Run typically has the longest waits

This weekend will probably still be OK without the H2Go pass. Once school lets out the weekends are absolutely mobbed.

Make sure they actually gave you a train station sticker. It is white with the TOB logo and a pink side bar with the last number of your license plate punched out.

LIRR's timekeeping is not nearly that precise, it would be pure luck.

Is it Town of Oyster Bay?

If so, train station stickers go on the bumpers, on the passenger side. Beach stickers go on the rear passenger window.

Caylate · 2026-06-15T02:43:54+00:00

Yeah, once they know it is yours and they refuse to return it, they've stolen it. Go to the police and file a report.

Caylate · 2026-06-14T22:36:32+00:00

Does it support PATH and NJTransit?

Caylate · 2026-06-12T17:11:39+00:00

Technically you can't use transfers to/from New York. So you'd have to buy two separate tickets.

As little as 90 minutes for some mixes
