New Entrance to Grand Central North Under Construction
Due to construction of a new street entrance to the underground corridors serving Grand Central Terminal on the south side of 47th Street midway between Park and Lexington Avenues, there will be no access to Grand Central North’s 47th Street cross passage from the Track 11 and 13 platform. All other access to the cross passageway will be unaffected. This project is expected to take 20 months to complete.
Construction is being done as part of MTA Long Island Rail Road’s (LIRR) East Side Access (ESA) project, which will bring LIRR commuters from Long Island and Eastern Queens to the east side of Manhattan in a new concourse being built under Grand Central Terminal.

New West-of-Hudson Schedules Effective Sunday, Jan. 17
Changes in the new Jan. 17th West-of-Hudson timetables reflect minor adjustments in connections between Secaucus Junction and Penn Station-NY due to a location shift in Amtrak’s ongoing concrete tie replacement program. Some Port Jervis and Pascack Valley connections to/from Penn Station will change by up to 2 minutes on weekdays and up to 5 minutes on weekends.
The one exception is the last train from Spring Valley on Friday nights only, when customers traveling to Penn Station will have to wait an additional 18 minutes at Secaucus Junction for their connection to Penn Station.
Be sure to pick up a new timetable at Hoboken, Penn Station-NY or Secaucus Junction. Timetables also are available on our schedules pages.

New Ticket Machine Center Opens in Grand Central
Our new Ticket Machine Center, located on the Main Concourse just under the archway leading to the Lexington Avenue subway, is officially open. This new facility will help alleviate the lines at our ticket windows and in the 42nd Street Passage, where ticket machines were formerly located, giving you a quicker and more comfortable purchasing experience.
The new center houses 10 machines (one for Metrocards only), and is well-lit, climate-controlled, and monitored by security cameras. It looks good, too, featuring a “Montauk” black floor, and the original façade’s large rectangular windows and bronze transom (the half moon grating above the windows). We think it fits nicely with our other “ticket” center, situated across from Track 34. (About 60% of our tickets are purchased via ticket machines. So this is truly a case of giving the people more of what they want…)

Tarrytown Station Construction
In support of improvements to the Tarrytown Station building, platforms, and overpasses, the following changes have been implemented:
- No stopping will be allowed in front of the station building.
- The taxi waiting area will be relocated to the drive way just north of the Village Hall.
- All buses (except Bee Line) will drop off in the morning and pick up in the afternoon south of the station building. The Bee Line bus stop will remain in its current location.
We thank you for your patience during this work to improve your station.
