Ronkonkoma Train Station

Does anyone take the LIRR into NYC from Ronkonkoma?

I'm just wondering if you have to be a resident of the town to park in the lot at the train station.

Thanks!

Nope you don't have to be a town resident. I commuted from Ronkonkoma for 3.5 years.

Re: Ronkonkoma Train Station

Thanks!

I'm sure it's not a fun commute but we're looking at houses out that way and I thought the Ronk. line might be easier than some of the branches.

Thanks again.

We're looking in Medford but I thought it'd be easier to get the train from Ronkonkoma.

I live in E. Patchogue and commute from Ronkonkoma....it is better than taking the Patchogue Train... It is doable.

It's good to know I'm not the only one who'll be making that commute!

Now, fingers crossed that we get the house....Chat Icon

Re: Ronkonkoma Train Station

I'm going to do a test run tomorrow night and take the train out to Ronkonkoma and then do a nighttime drive by of the house we're interested in.

DH is concerned that it's way too long of a commute. But I'd rather have a long commute and a house that we can afford than a shorter commute and a house that's strapping us!

Re: Ronkonkoma Train Station

I did it for three years, it is very do-able. Parking is free except in the garage or in the lot in front of World Gym. Hopefully your schedule will allow you to take express trains

Re: Ronkonkoma Train Station

Yep!! You dont have to pay to park at the station, unless you are in the parking garage. there is one lot that is $4 for the day to park, next to the garage

I take a 6:08 train in the morning...of course I have not problems parking. I sometimes take the 7:04 and always find a spot.

Re: Ronkonkoma Train Station

Nothing wrong with free parking!

I'd probably be on the 7:04 - 6am is SO early!!
