This weekend's Ronkonkoma-via-Babylon operation means a rare chance to actually see LIRR dual modes in electric mode making a stop that isn't Jamaica or Penn!

With a trip out to Greenport (via Babylon!) today, I've now ridden the entirety of the LIRR (Yes, including Belmont Park!)

exactly. the need for a kiss-and-ride easily be alleviated by constructing more parking in its place and ensuring each family owns at least two (ideally three for when the kid turns 16) cars
This is apparently something called a “Kiss and Ride” drop off. A maze for cars next to a train station. I have never heard of this term, but it echos what @volts.wtf has said that we waste transit projects that still serve suburban commuters and cars over moving people to places they want to be

More on this - TOD is great, as are feeder buses, but they're not a be-all, end-all solution to suburban transit ridership. Accommodating drivers in a simple, space-efficient way with drop off zones is *way* better than massive parking lots, and if we want to *reduce* car trips, it's great!
Can you even call yourself an urbaniat if you've never heard this term before? Some people, smh

This week, a very special transit system turns 50! If you've never heard of the Morgantown PRT, this is what they thought the future of transportation would be in the 70s. It's WILD! youtu.be/08HNZbxfai4

New York completely rejected left-NIMBYism today. we elected a socialist pro-housing mayor, and passed pro-housing ballot measures with a diverse coalition that was strongest in the Bronx, winning every borough by double digits (except the MAGA NIMBYs Staten Island)

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.
