LIRR Cannonball isn't the only Cannonball[edit]
Here's a reminder of other trains named "Cannonball" or "Cannon Ball." ---------User:DanTD (talk) 21:23, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
Mileage[edit]
See Talk:Port Washington Branch#Milage and Talk:Long Island Rail Road#Mileage. The mileage numbers used in this article are (through no fault of its own) wrong in two ways:
- The distance given for Jamaica (9.3 miles) is the distance from Jamaica to Long Island City via the Main Line, not to Penn. That distance is actually 11.3 miles.
- The distances for the Montauk Branch stations are all computed to Long Island City via the Montauk Branch, so they're all off by a little under two miles.
The actual distance from Penn to Montauk, looking at a 1945 Official Guide (unsuitable for this article, we need something modern), is around 117.4 miles. Mackensen (talk) 10:23, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
