New schedules start on all LIRR branches on Monday, May 19, 2025.
The new schedules signal the start of our summer service, which includes new options to and from Montauk on weekdays and Sundays.
There are no major changes to rush hour service. Many midday weekday, overnight, and weekend departure times have been adjusted to allow us to advance key track and infrastructure improvement projects. Some trains will depart earlier than they do today.
All riders should use the new schedules or our TrainTime app to check for changes to their trip.
Long Beach Branch
- The 7:44 p.m. weekday train from Penn Station will add a stop at Lynbrook.
- The 11:57 p.m. weekday train from Penn Station will add stops at Locust Manor, Laurelton, and Rosedale.
Grand Central service
Westbound weekday service to Grand Central will start earlier, with new departures from Jamaica at 5:07 a.m. and 5:18 a.m.
Port Washington Branch
Midday weekday service at Mets-Willets Point, Murray Hill, Broadway, Auburndale, and Plandome is temporarily reduced to hourly as we perform track work. For Mets day games and during the US Open, half hourly service will run at Mets-Willets Point.
Normal service is expected to return in September.
