newmnrer Posted May 24, 2011 Share #1 Posted May 24, 2011 Hi, Tried to avoid clogging the boards with this amateur question, but I couldn't find a good thread when I searched. So here goes: How do connecting services work exactly? It says here the buses and subways that qualify as connecting. But can I only go on these routes/subway lines and only at specific times? Or does a Metro North + connecting service card eliminate the need for a Metrocard period? Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortline Bus Posted May 24, 2011 Share #2 Posted May 24, 2011 Hi, Tried to avoid clogging the boards with this amateur question, but I couldn't find a good thread when I searched.

Connecting service means one of these '3' things. 1)Alternative mass transit routes at the station you can use if and when MNRR or LIRR has a shutdown. 2)If you traveling further i.e going to Citifield for a Mets game, at Grand Central you can connect for 'additional' full fare to the subway line. 3)The exact street location of where that railroad station is. Other info: 4)Most of the NYC subway lines runs 7 days a week 365 days a year. However if you connecting in say Poughkeepsie to the local Ducthess County Loop or Ulster link to New Paltz you need to check for the times they run. The Ulster/Dutchess Buses don't run on major holidays such as New Year's, July4th, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas. Hope it answers your questions.
