LIRR question from city mom

Hi ladies,

I'm planning on taking the LIRR to DH's work family holiday party and I'm not sure what the best way is.

DS is 7.5 mos. We will be taking the train from the Forest Hills station to Mineola (approx. 25 minute ride, no transfers).

Should I bring him in the Baby Bjorn or should I/can I bring him in my stroller (no umbrella stroller, I have the Pliko P3).

I know there is a handicap ramp at the Forest Hills station, not sure about Mineola.

Which do you think would be easier?

Thanks!!

Mineola has a ramp also.

That's a really short ride, there should be enought room.
I would DEFINITELY bring the stroller.

Are you sure it's direct? Forest Hills is the Babylon branch and doesn't go to Mineola (as far as I remember).

Mineola does have an elevator. I would bring your stroller if you think you'll need it at the party.

I just double-checked the LIRR site and there are a few times where I do not have to transfer at Jamaica.

Thanks, ladies!! I'm going to bring the stroller!

I agree with Jessee - From Forest Hills to Mineola - at certain times - you have to transfer at Jamaica so look online to be sure Chat Icon

I would bring the stroller - may be easier for you at the party if Frankie starts getting tired and wants to sit or lounge around in it. HAVE FUN!!!!!!
