    Is the end of the A train in Far Rockaway in a safe neighborhood?

    Its not exactly safe but. . .

    Since Guiliani was Mayor he really cleaned the subway up. As a young kid I would never have used the A train. Now? Maybe.

    When do you need to travel there?

    You shouldn’t have an issue in the middle of the day. Yeah, it’s not a great neighborhood, but there’s a decent police presence.

    Where are you coming from, and what time are you arriving? Is the LIRR an option for you?

    It goes to Harlem. If you miss the A Train, you’ll find you’ve missed the quickest way to Harlem.

    MachaaMaker, but that does not mean you can go anywhere you want and put yourself in danger.

    I have friends in the 5 towns and the A train is just the most convenient but I heard that it isn’t so safe.

    I’ll just take the LIRR or meet them in the city

    I take the A train from the northern tip of Manhattan to Brooklyn several times every week. Never seen anything problematic. It *is* very crowded, though.

    I’ve been taking the A train from Far Rock for more than 25 years, and never had a problem. The trains run often, so it is a lot more convenient than the LIRR. It can be a little noisy when the schoolkids are traveling. The biggest surprise was when I chose to take the subway into Manhattan on a Sunday – most of the other passengers were family groups.

    How would you know if it was an accident?
