Long Island’s LIRR Schedule Changes

LIRR’S SCHEDULE CHANGES…WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!

This Monday, July 10th, begins the Long Island Rail Road’s “Summer of Hell”. As many as 10,000 LIRR weekday rush hour commuters will be affected due to Amtrak’s construction schedule for Penn Station. To account for these 10,000 seats, the LIRR will run additional trains during peak rush hour times in addition to the extra trains. Although many people are dreading these next few weeks, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!  As all of these construction hours will eventually reduce congestion and fix many issues at Penn station.  LIRR is launching bus and ferry services as alternative options for commuting into Manhattan, as well as increasing rush hour capacity by modifying train schedules and lengthening trains.

Multiple trains will be affected by these modifications for the time being. According to the MTA here is a complete list of the LIRR summer changes listed in alphabetical order:
