JustyThoughts - if he drove there at 2 PM, the train station would most likely be filled with a whole lot of cars and not a lot of people. Most people who work in the city take a 7ish AM train in and arrive back in Deer Park at about 7ish PM. My car was stolen in broad daylight at a LIRR station in the 80s.
And, if he did take the train to work during rush hour, it's not likely anyone would have noticed him among the throngs of people.
Seifert79 - Wife SAYS he didn't take the train because he doesn't usually and doesn't like to. However, do we know for a FACT that he didn't take the train?
I still don't understand why, if he really did not like to leave his car at the train station, he would drive there after work and leave it there if he didn't take the train. A safer place to leave a car would be the nearby Arches mall
