list of complaints about the new schedule changes.
One rider told News 12's Danielle Campbell that she is
getting home at least 20 minutes later in the evening.
She also says that commuters are standing in the aisles as
the trains get closer to New York City.
The railroad took steps to fix problems from the rollout of
its Grand Central Madison service.
Some of the changes involved adding rush hour trains to
Brooklyn and additional train cars. Cars were also added to Penn Station from
branches, including Port Washington, Babylon and Ronkonkoma.
