LIRR commuters- especially Ronkonkoma line

So looking at the online schedule, it seems like the trains are running on their old schedule again.
However, I feel like on here people were saying that is not the case and when you get to the station trains are running late or not running at all, etc

So- can I trust the online schedule or is it off?

I need to be in the city tomorrow and I want to at least have an idea of what time I will ACTUALLY be getting in and home if possible.

Dont trust it....its definitely not accurate. They still have cancelled trains in there. I have found coocoo to be pretty accurate, and on their website you can find a list of trains that are cancelled.

Also for me the trains have been packed. I guess with the gas shortage people are taking the train more?

Hey, get off my train! j/k

I don't know... the way the LIE has been for the past few days, I'd say people aren't concerned anymore about gas. The traffic has been atrocious! Worse than it was before Sandy.

I took the Ronkonkoma train yesterday and had no issues. Both trains were on time and not crowded. Took the 9:14 to Ronkonkoma and the 4:48 back to Penn.

I think they are more packed because accordign to the MTA website they are cancelling a few trains in the AM and a few in the PM
That leads to more people per train.

If you're leaving during peak hours, be there early.

Trains are pretty packed.
