How far apart were the stations, PB? My experience has been that if a station is the only one in a 2-5 mile radius, it'll charge a lot more than if it's in a cluster on a major road.
Not sure if you're familiar with Bronx River Road, TB. But when you take Webster Avenue north out of the Bronx, Webster will turn into Bronx River Road at the Westchester County line. It runs parallel to the Bronx River Parkway throughout the City of Yonkers. Anyway, the stations are literally right next to each other, just north of the county line (somewhere between 238th Street and Yonkers Avenue).
I'm RARELY in that part of town. But my Dad's in Eastchester (and back on his own part-time, thank God). And there was a ton of traffic, so I jumped off the Bronx River Parkway at 233rd (near Woodlawn Cemetery), and took Webster Avenue and Bronx River Road straight up.
