LIRR Service during COVID-19 Pandemic

The LIRR is here to provide service for health-care workers, first responders, and other essential employees. Everyone else should stay home. 

We’re operating the MTA Essential Service Plan until further notice. 

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is requiring everyone in New York to wear masks or face coverings when they’re out in public. 

Details about in-person service and facilities:

  • All LIRR ticket counters are closed. We are also no longer taking cash onboard trains. You can still use cash at ticket vending machines, or you can use the MTA eTix app. 
  • The West End Concourse at Penn Station (along 8th Avenue) is closed until further notice.
  • Entrances on 34th St and on 7th Avenue are still open.
