When I go to the train station is usually clean and is now very updated compared to the one I use in Babylon. It's kind of behind sunrise across from Mulcahy's and the spoon. On that side, where you can go in to talk to an employee to get tickets for the train, there is a screen on the outside of the building with a list of trains that are going to stations and it tells you if they're on time or not, which is nice. And also tells you what time they're coming in so that way you're not running and guessing when you get there. I like the fact that they have it on the outside because now you don't have to run in the building to see if they're on time or late.

This review is for anyone flying into LaGuardia, terminal A and looking for an alternative to a taxi.

Usually I take the E train…read moreto work from Manhattan to Queens because it's a little faster but sometimes I take the N because it's less crowded and some days I just can't deal. Honestly, it seems more reliable than the E train, especially in the morning and I can always get on an Astoria bound N train. Sometimes I have to wait for 2-3 Queens bound E trains until I can squeeze on. The N Train deserves more respect from me instead of just sitting there, waiting for me to take it while the E train gets my attention, but as the saying goes people only take advantage of you if you let them. So you just sit there and wait, N Train, and I'll call you when I feel like it. Until then, we don't know each other and so help me if you say anything to the E train, it might get ugly.

I was taking the LIRR early Monday morning to visit my brother in Long Island. My go-to station…read morehad always been Penn, but Monday's train originated from Grand Central Madison. I'd never been -- the station is only three years old -- so I stopped by Sunday to (pardon the expression) 'case the joint out.' Good thing! I entered at Grand Central Station, followed signs and walked. Then walked some more. Took escalators, maybe an elevator. Finally ended up at ticketing. I don't think I would have allotted enough time if I hadn't known the layout beforehand. It was off hour. Not many people there. The customer service rep, a wonderful woman named Heather, wanted to make sure I knew what I was doing. She actually left her post to show me the tracks and helped me get my bearings. (Guess what! Heather was there Monday morning when I returned. I felt like I was seeing an old friend!) Here's a tip for everyone: If you don't want to deal with the underground labyrinth, look for the elevator on Madison off 47th Street. It'll take you directly down to ticketing and the waiting area. And specifically for older folks: To reap the senior discount, purchase your tickets the day of your trip, not before. There's no upcharge to buy tickets on the train. If I heard correctly, senior fares are the same for peak and off-peak -- but don't quote me on that! This station is light, bright, much quieter than Penn. Bathrooms are infinitely better. Now that I know what I'm doing, this may become my station of choice.
