In conjunction with this early rush hour, several regularly scheduled late PM peak trains will not operate. The extra trains are as follows:

The Haverstraw-Ossining Ferry will have an extra early ferry meet the 2:54pm train from Grand Central. The 6:20 p.m. train to Ossining and its connecting ferry will not operate.
The Newburgh-Beacon Ferry will provide extra early ferries to meet the following trains from Grand Central: the 2:50 p.m., 3:30 p.m., and 4:05 p.m. trains, as noted in published timetables.
The 5:31 p.m. express train to Beacon does not operate. The ferry will instead meet the combined 5:34 p.m. train to Poughkeepsie.
On Monday, Labor Day, no connecting services will operate.
