Here's an interesting post I've come across with some ticket sale information.

This is fantastic! And with the proposed express bus cuts to queens, I am seriously considering ways to shift some of my work to Brooklyn to take advantage of CItyTicket and Atlantic TIcket

Rosedale. Queens Village, and Laurelton seems to be high trip generators for the Atlantic Branch. IIRC, aren't those station served by the Far Rockaway Long Beach, and Hempstead Branches?

That Babylon Express is slowly losing ridership skipping Queens to head to Penn Station.

City Ticket and Atlantic Ticket are great, quick rides at a discount. Atlantic Branch, Off peak service is 60 mins east of Jamaica and 30 mins West of Jamaica though.

Yes, those are the three branches which serve those stations. This makes it easy for LIRR because most Atlantic Ticket trips are direct trips to and from those stations.

Some Babylon trains serve St Albans.
