Nope nada deal today involving LIRR

No train to Manhattan from Long Island tomorrow so use shuttle buses arranged by MTA after the talks of negotiation failed this afternoon at 3pm when the meeting started.

From the meeting, the rush hour is not in effect tomorrow morning, maybe a sign of a deal possibly tonight as the talks continue.

The congestion pricing was a winner today with the highest record of money collection and the Governor is pleased.

The workers lose hours and commuters lose their lifeline, yet executives keep bonuses without affecting the strike. From 2025 payroll for LIRR workers, 22% went into overtime from the total payout of $1 billion.

Also today, the average pay of housekeepers in New York City hotels will increase to more than $100,000 a year as part of the union deal. Perhaps become a house keeper instead of working for LIRR.

As for the crime side, 21 ride share app drivers were robbed of their personal belongings in NYC.

From the picture, the LIRR station is empty for the first time in 30 years.
