How could you tell it was Metro North?

Aside from the article Bellakin posted, Metro-North trains have padding on the back of the seats (I guess Westchester heads are too dainty if a train stops short). The LIRR M7s don't.

As high as the fares are on the LIRR, you'd think we'd get padding!

Those weren't actually her chips, which is making me gag even more.

From the article:
Drinking alcohol can leave us craving greasy food but one young woman couldn't last a train journey without getting her fill and ended up eating leftover chips from the floor.

Oh jeeze...

Ms Massey told the Gothamist that the girl was so inebriated that she even ate a $5 bill off the floor before tackling the chips

This always amused me. Aside from train to train impact, there is no 'stopping short' on a train.
On the LIRR these pads would just be something else for loser kids to slash.
