It's LHR-IAD-HPN, FWIW.
I wouldnt risk it, Was stood in the queue for 3 hours once, the mobile lounges kept dropping more and more people into the hall, the queue wasnt going anywhere and when you get towards the front you can see airport employees literally throwing your luggage off the carousel and then kicking it into place where it sits unsupervised until you finall make it through the bottleneck
