HI all, I'm a regular LIRR rider out of Merrick and I was wondering if anyone had information on the future station closures I've been hearing about. As I was purchasing my monthly ticket this week I was informed by the ticket agent that Freeport, Merrick, Massapequa and about 5 other LIRR stations are scheduled to be permanently closed sometime next year. Is this just a scare tactic ?
Oh and I'm assuming that when they say "station closing" they mean that there won't be ticket agents on the premises anymore, BUT trains will still stop at these platforms. Am I correct in assuming this?
Anyone have any info ???
Thanks everyone
