lilbluefoxie Posted January 19, 2011 Share #3 Posted January 19, 2011 very nice work, which station is this? Im guessing Nassau Blvd near Adelphi University Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKorean Posted January 19, 2011 Share #4 Posted January 19, 2011 I see theres another station not too far away, a walkable distance. A rare thing for a commuter rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Julio Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share #5 Posted January 19, 2011 Awesome shots! Thanks. very nice work, which station is this? Im guessing Nassau Blvd near Adelphi University Yeah, it's Nassau Boulevard. I see theres another station not too far away, a walkable distance. A rare thing for a commuter rail. Yeah, that's Stewart Manor. I wouldn't consider it walkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbluefoxie Posted January 19, 2011 Share #6 Posted January 19, 2011 Thanks. Yeah, it's Nassau Boulevard. Yeah, that's Stewart Manor. I wouldn't consider it walkable. Theres a golf course in teh way and the streets dont line up nicely enough there to walk it. Google says its about a half hour walk, 1.4 miles. it is however about 8 blocks between Stewart Manor and New Hyde Park stations, and its possible to walk from Country Life Press to Garden City. All in all Garden City is a great place to live or visit if you like the LIRR, they have 5 stations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKorean Posted January 19, 2011 Share #10 Posted January 19, 2011 I take this train everytime I go to the Islanders game so i should be familiar but strangely I am not. Great pics. BTW that two stations looks like they are as close as Av U and Neck Road stations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PATCOman Posted January 20, 2011 Share #11 Posted January 20, 2011 Awesome pics! Close stations are pretty common in SEPTA territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amtrak7 Posted January 20, 2011 Share #12 Posted January 20, 2011 All in all Garden City is a great place to live or visit if you like the LIRR, they have 5 stations Hempstead-Country Life Press-Garden City are really, really close together. Awesome pics! Close stations are pretty common in SEPTA territory. SEPTA station spacing is a bit insane, for someone who's used to the LIRR mainline. Ever look at the NEC between Darby and Marcus Hook on Google Earth/Maps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
