It’s official and more proof that Connecticut is far better than New York or New Jersey — Metro North edged out the Long Island Railroad last year as the busiest commuter rail line.
Metro-North had 82 million rides in 2011 while the Long Island line had 81 million. Metro-North predicts ridership will grow by 2 percent during the coming year.
According to the railroad, of the 209,020 trains that ran in 2011, almost 97 percent of them arrived on time.
