AgedPolaris Posted June 8, 2009 Share #1 Posted June 8, 2009 Started posing in a few threads and forgot to leave a little message here! I actually stumbled upon these forums when I was searching for a list of LIRR service changes, and was amazed at the amount of information you guys have. Naturally, I registered an account. Brief background: Grew up in and around Queens, and then actually went with my dad down to Florida for a couple years. A nice place to visit, it certainly wasn't for me as far as living goes, and I was ecstatic to get back NY a couple years back. When gas prices began to get really obnoxious in early '08, I took advantage of the fact that I literally live right next to the Gibson LIRR station on the Far Rockaway branch out in Valley Stream now, and began using trains and buses to get everywhere just like I did when I was 15. Haven't had plates on my car since. (For better or worse...) So yup. thaaaaz about it. Been riding these trains since I can remember. I mainly miss the R33s on the , and perhaps the biggest surprise I've ever had riding transit around the tri-state area was an actual Metro North FL9 in regular service on a trip up to Danbury a few years ago. Amazing. Used to go to model train shows and stuff with my dad and gramps as a young kid too, so it's always been kind of an interest to me - one that I'm sad to say none of my friends really share. I'm also into music, sound production, computers, and general urban exploring and... well, I'll stop while I'm ahead. A picture? why not? That's me dressed far better than normal when I went out with the fam for the annual lunch at Peter Luger. Best damn hamburger I think... anywhere. (Much better than Paul's on 2nd ave IMO) That's it.

Y2Julio Posted June 10, 2009 Share #5 Posted June 10, 2009 Welcome to the forums and how dare you utter such blasphemous words. Paul's burgers are the best in NYC hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
