[edit] Moving between carriages

It looks from the pictures like passengers aren’t allowed to move between units, but are there passenger gangways between the two carriages of a married pair? David Arthur 17:33, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Passengers are allowed to move about the married pair (to get to the bathrooms, they might have no choice but to). But they not allowed to move between "units". Pacific Coast Highway {talkcontribs} 21:29, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Passengers are required to be in the front 4 cars on LIRR trains stopping at Forest Hills and Key Gardens. I always get on the front at Penn, but assume you can move forward after the train is underway. Rusty 22:33, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes-- Although there are small signs saying it is prohibited to do so while in motion, day to day operations frequently require passing from car to car.

Whats a Unit? Plyhmrp 20:25, 6 May 2007 (UTC)plyhmrp

A unit consists of two cars that are semi-permanently connected by a link bar, otherwise known as a married pair. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fan Railer (talkcontribs) 23:45, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
