  • Six Empire Service Trains Will Stop at Grand Central Terminal Instead of New York Penn Station Starting July 10 Through Sept. 1
    Six Empire Service Trains Will Stop at Grand Central Terminal Instead of New York Penn Station Starting July 10 through Sept. 1, 2017 Infrastructure Renewal at New York Penn Station As part of the Infrastructure Renewal at New York Penn Station, Amtrak will perform a series of major track and switch renewal projects that will strengthen railroad infrastructure, operations and preparedness -- and ultimately improve reliability at America’s busiest rail hub. The Infrastructure Renewal work accelerates several years of already planned improvements to track, switch and other infrastructure at Penn Station to improve track conditions. This major work will require three northbound and three southbound Empire Service trains to use Grand Central Terminal instead of Penn Station from July 10 – Sept. 1, 2017. If you are getting on or off the following trains at Grand Central Terminal, here are a few things you should know: Trains 230, 233, 235, 236, 239 and 242 Will Stop at Grand Central Terminal Location: Grand Central Terminal is located about a mile north of Penn Station at 89 E 42nd Street, New York, NY, 10017. Transferring between Grand Central Terminal and New York Penn Station: If you are transferring between New York Penn Station and Grand Central Terminal, taxi and local transit are available from both stations, or you can choose to walk. Customers are encouraged to allow extra time if transferring between stations. Schedule Change: Note the new arrival and departure times on your ticket. Trains arriving at and departing from Grand Central Terminal will operate an adjusted schedule. Contact Amtrak for schedule information.

  • I-87 Multimodal Corridor Study
    I-87 Multimodal Corridor Study Adirondack Corridor Service Improvements 2.10. ADIRONDACK CORRIDOR SERVICE IMPROVEMENTS 2.10.1. INTRODUCTION The improvement project presented in this section – New Albany-Rensselaer Station Adirondack Corridor Service Improvements – is focused on the Intercity and Tourist travel markets. The Empire Corridor between New York City, Albany and the Buffalo/Niagara Falls (see Figure 2.10-1) area is one of the more successful rail corridors in the country, particularly between Albany and New York City. Ridership on the Adirondack Corridor portion, between Albany, Plattsburgh, and Montreal, is considerably less, although passenger rail service to the Adirondack communities is important to their long-term vitality. The concepts discussed in this section look to build on those successes, focusing specifically on possible actions in the Capital District and along the Adirondack Corridor. A variety of improvements have been identified to improve travel times, reliability and service quality as part of the High-Speed Rail Pre-Feasibility Study: New York City to Montreal, which was completed as part of the I-87 Multimodal Corridor Study. The proposed project looks at further actions to enhance rail service in the corridor, including improved public transportation links between the Albany/Rensselaer train station and major destinations in the Capital District. These and other actions to upgrade Empire and Adirondack Corridor rail service and to increase their effectiveness as part of a vital public transportation network are consistent with the multimodal goals of the corridor study and the Smart Public Transportation elements of its Corridor Strategic Plan. 2.10.2. EXISTING CONDITIONS 2.10.2.1.
