Extra LIRR Service For Yankees Parade
Earlier today, the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) announced it will be providing extra trains in anticipation of the many Long Islanders who will be attending the New York Yankees Ticker Tape Parade. Here are the complete details courtesy of a press release sent to me:
The MTA Long Island Rail Road will provide extra trains (six morning westbound and eight afternoon eastbound) for fans attending the special parade for the World Series Champion Yankees on Friday, November 6. The parade will begin on Broadway at Battery Place at 11:00 AM and continue northbound up the Canyon of Heroes to Chambers Street. The parade will be followed by a ceremony at City Hall Plaza, at which the Mayor will present the Yankees with Keys to the City. LIRR Customers should purchase round-trip tickets in advance in order to save time and avoid lines.
