    Make your 12:34 am train at all costs, or expect your trip home to be that much more time consuming and expensive.

    Get there early. It's kinda complicated reading the boards if you don't get there early. It costs about $15 round trip. There's plenty of food and seating to wait at the Penn Station terminal.

    If you have to spend more than three minutes at the LIRR ticket vending machine trying to purchase your ticket, you might want to see a doctor. There's a very good chance that you're retarded.
