Catching 4:07 pm train from Jamiaca to HS🚂💨 driving to Babylon is mandatory bc it’s like hour walk🚶🏽♂️from station I heard ! Not sure how parking works over there but we’ll find out on Wednesday . There’s plenty of parking in Babylon in front of the trailers. Just show your LIRR timetable to the security. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you won’t be getting any MTA ID until phase 2 just show them your timetable and rules book and tell them your going to hillside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drenyce311 Posted September 14, 2019 Share #1754 Posted September 14, 2019 For those who live out east and live near each other I suggest carpooling. Also studying together too if you can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When phase 1 starts for me, that will be fun getting into Hillside. KO on the weekends wont be bad at all tho. Wish it was the other way around tho. KO on Wednesday and Hillside on the weekend. Way less LI traffic going into Queens early morning. What time does the Hillside class start this Phase 1? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think KO classes are no longer being done.i think they removed the trailers. They’re constructing a new facility there. That’s what I heard. Every class is in Babylon or hillside for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And these rules are so long they take forever to write out even if done sloppy. I’m a little over halfway through it. Tonight I should be able to get some more done and then tomorrow before our first class. But I don’t think I’ll be finished by tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
