Almost exactly a month ago I went on my first trip up the Hudson Line in a few years. This simple update of the two stations I’ve been meaning to upload this for the past month, and just never got around to it; this evening, as I’m working on more impressive updates, I present these […]
Year: 2013
After my successful trip a few weeks ago getting a lot more of the Gladstone Branch and Morristown Line done I decide its time to head out to Jersey for another trip to get more (but not finish, it would be a 7 mile walk for the Gladstone Branch done). My plan is to leave […]
I finished Shore Line East and New Haven about a month ago, I’m finally ready to start coming down the actual New Haven Line. These two stations I visited for free on a little jaunt up Metro-North during the transit emergency after Superstorm Sandy when Governor Cuomo waived fares (including within Connecticut). Each has a […]
I’ve been scheming on how to finally get the Hudson Line up to my website and spent far to long one evening on MTA.info going through and even making a price list of intermediate fares to the stations in Putnam and Dutchess Counties. I am also a bit of an art museum lover and for […]
Well, with this update I’m getting quite close (1 station I still need to visit that lacks photos, 2 more that I’m in the process of rebuilding) to having every LIRR station in Nassau County! Here the final 3 stops in Nassau County on the Ronkonkoma Branch (two already had pages from way back in […]
Simple update today, a continuation of the the past two days. Two more stations off the LIRR list on the Main Line: Westbury–(57 Photos) Carle Place–(52 Photos) Enjoy!
This update is finishing the rest of the concrete elevated stations of the Babylon Branch that feel like a modern elevated subway line. I haven’t gotten out to Babylon itself yet, I’m hoping to on my next trip out to the island so here are the final 5 stations: Lindenhurst–(44 Photos) Copiague–(39 Photos) Amityville–(51 Photos) […]
Today’s Half-Hour Emergency Break Application Delay: I’m on way to Brooklyn to go to work. I’m sitting in the last car that has some people standing but is relatively empty. At about 10:00am just south of 34 Street I heard that awful sound of air rushing out of the breaks and us slowly stopping (not […]
Today I had a completely free day, an Unlimited Ride MetroCard in my wallet and a quest to get more of Long Island done. The original plan was to take the train to Syosset, take a too early train to Huntington (to get some photo time there) and finally ride out to Port Jefferson. Unfortunately […]
On Friday I took a trip that was primarily by Nice Bus (took one short LIRR ride back from Lindenhurst) that I just didn’t get around to blog about out to Nassau and the edge of Suffolk County to finally finish getting the station’s all elevated on concrete guideways (except for one) Babylon Branch. In […]
