New LIRR schedules start Tuesday, September 8, on all branches.

Here are some of the changes:

🟢 Brooklyn service – Midday service between Jamaica and Brooklyn will be reduced from three trains per hour to two trains per hour through November due to trackwork.

🟢 Greenport service – Buses will replace midday, off-peak trains between Ronkonkoma and Greenport for track renewal work on weekdays through mid-November.

🟢 Montauk Branch – A new year-round, direct weekday train to Montauk departs Penn Station at 5:13 pm, arriving Montauk at 8:30 pm.

There are also some adjustments to departure and arrival times; no major changes to rush hour service.

Check to see if your trip is changing on the TrainTime app or by visiting mta.info.

Here's a look at Mets-Willets Point, back in 1964 during the New York Word's Fair!

Today, the station is open year-round, and is most often used for Mets game and events at Citi Field, and during the U.S. Open tennis tournament.
