Nursing moms who commute on the Long Island Rail Road will soon have access to a private space just for breastfeeding.
The LIRR plans to install one private "Mamava" lactation pod at its Penn Station waiting room in the fall.
The breastfeeding spaces have benches, fold-down tables and power outlets.
They can be locked and unlocked with an app.
The railroad says that if the operation turns out to be a success, it may add more pods.
