A two-minute, 0.9 mile ride on the Long Island Rail Road from Flushing to Shea Stadium costs $10 or $12, depending on time of travel, if the ticket is purchased on board. The ticket is $5 or $7 if purchased in advance. (Of course, hardly anyone would take the LIRR to get from Flushing to Shea Stadium, when a bus or subway will get you there for $2.)
