NWR - Trivia question bc i feel stupid about asking the 8 yr old next to me to repeat himself

Genius little 8yr old kid sitting next to me is spouting off facts about the LIRR to his brothers. He says you know there are 4 rr stations named after places in the Bible. Jericho, Bethpage, Mt Sinai and I missed the last one

Does anyone know what it is? Tried to google it but my bb is superslow.

I feel like I should know this since he's 8 and I'm 31.

Bethpage is in the bible?

Don't hurl things at me, sometimes I'm blonde.

fun trivia question.

sadly, after 20+ years of Catholic education, I had no clue about Bethpage. Had to google it and it STILL doesn't ring a bell. oh well.

I didn't know bethpage was in the bible either. I couldn't name all the towns if he hadn't said it.

since im such a tool, i was thinking about this more and that little 8 -year isnt so hot... i think he meant towns on long island, as Mt. Sinai and Jericho are towns but not actual LIRR stops.

stupid kid trying to be a hot shot to his brothers... but Bethpage is biblical and a LIRR depot. who knew?
