I intend to produce a paid ticket..its just that Choo Choo Charlie is going to have to wait for it. Maybe if more people did that day after day after day, the LIRR would get a message.

Whats that message? If you do this on a normal day to day basis on the same train its not going to solve anything and everyone else is going to get really tired of you really quickly.

They don't stop the train when someone cannot find his/her ticket. The ticket puncher either goes on and comes back later, or waits then and there.

Right and when they come back and you pull the same BS, then they'll call for police

Disorderly conduct, esp if you do it every day on the same train with the same conductor. Interfering with a train crew is technically a federal crime.

And your point is what, to prove you are being a pain?

Impossible to prove I do it everyday. No cop is going to arrest anyone on the word of Charlie Choo Choo in his Hat with Buttons On It.

Basically yes. The conductors could care less that the service sucks. They just want to put in their time. They are the face of the railroad, the first point of customer service, and they should realize that people are dissatisfied.
