LIRR PM Rush Hour Info

MTA Long Island Rail Road plans to operate a reduced weekday PM Rush Hour schedule as a result of weather-related issues from the severe winter storm. Of the 126 trains normally operated during the PM rush, approximately 18 eastbound PM rush trains will be canceled and, as a result, some trains could be more crowded. Buses will replace train service east of Speonk on the Montauk Branch and east of Ronkonkoma on the Main Line to Greenport.

Additionally, because of a weather-related track condition in the Cold Spring Harbor area, electric train service between Hicksville and Huntington will terminate at Hicksville. Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers must change to/from electric trains to diesel trains at Hicksville. Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers should anticipate delays and should listen for announcements at western terminals and at stations Hicksville through Huntington.

As an alternative Syosset, Cold Spring Harbor and Huntington customers can avoid the transfer at Hicksville by taking direct diesel train service at western terminals. Electronic train information displays on
the Port Jefferson Branch will refer affected customers to our website since it cannot be programmed with the revised schedule info.

While the LIRR will make every effort to operate the Snow Recovery Schedule as outlined below, it is possible that additional alterations to the PM rush hour schedule may be necessary. The Snow Recovery Schedule is meant as a baseline to indicate to customers the level of service the LIRR intends to operate after the storm as a result of anticipated weather-related issues.
