Connecting trains on LIRR

[Swadian Hardcore]

This trip I'm heading to Burlington, so taking the Adirondack to Port Kent and then a ferry across Lake Champlain gets me in earlier then the Vermonter. Plus I've been looking for an excuse to take the Adirondack for a while now.

That makes good sense, thanks for replying so fast!

Looks like your trip became very interesting. Two railroads and a ferry sounds fun!

LIRR to Port Jefferson, ferry to Bridgeport, Amtrak to Boston.

Funny thing, I once took the LIRR from Stony Brook to Port Jefferson and then the ferry to Bridgeport for a Greyhound bus to Hartfort, CT. I did not think about using Amtrak at all at the time. :blink:

Hey, Port Jefferson to Bridgeport is really a shortcut compared to deoturing through NYP, evenn though the ferry itself is quite slow. You know I won't object to anyone riding a Greyhound bus, as long as you don't rant about it!

To get to the Port Jeff ferry from Stony Brook, it's a lot easier to get to it by the Suffolk County bus (or the SBU Transit bus line that's starting soon) instead of the LIRR, since the Port Jeff Station is about a mile away from the ferry.

Very true, it was a good walk though! :giggle:

At least it is all downhill
