New Yorkers need some directions

Hey New Yorkers need some directions to get to Central park Zoo.

Coming into city to Penn Station by LIRR and the direction on Central Park Zoo state to take the N or R subway train.

whats the closes train station from Penn where i can take either of those train.
 
well first take the N/R to the 5th avenue station - the N/R doesn't stop in penn but it's close. get out of penn and walk towards the east side an avenue or so. theres an enterance to the N/R on 34th and 6th or broadway or whatever is one avenue east of the garden. the 5th avenue station - that will let you off right on central park south. just enter the park. from there - hmm .. i dunno. theres no roads or anything in the park. you might have to just ask someone.
 
Thanks for the reply. thats what i'm looking for just were to get on the N or R train, then the directions say to get off at 5th avenue and do a little walking about 4 blocks. The Zoo is located at 64th street and Fifth ave.

i will look on a map again.

yes i been there, just looking in there huge pdf map the location of the closes train station once you come out of Penn on 7th Ave and 33 st.
 
yeah - you will get out on 33rd and 7th and then just walk east to 6th/broadway for N/R .. You'll be fine - it's not too tough.
 
One more question

34 st Herald Sq and broadway is that where there is a mall on the corner? that looks like perfect place to take the N train.

I Think i got every covered now thanks everyone.
