News Flash • LIRR Notification: Buses Replacing Trains Betwe

From Monday, September 29th through Friday, October 3rd, between 9PM and 4AM, we will be conducting necessary Sperry Rail Testing on the Montauk Branch. During this time, bus service will replace trains between Babylon and Montauk.

The last trains to operate before the service change will be the 8:36PM from Babylon and the 9:07PM from Speonk. Regular train service will resume with the 4:10AM departure from Speonk.

To support this critical work, buses will operate in three travel zones, making all local stops within each zone and running non-stop to and from Babylon. Please note local travel between stops in different zones will not be possible during this time.

The travel zones are:

• Bay Shore through Patchogue
• Bellport through Southampton
• Bridgehampton through Montauk

Westbound buses will depart earlier than regularly scheduled train times. For the most accurate bus departure times, we encourage commuters to use the TrainTime app or visit mta.info/schedules.

While this important work helps maintain the safety and reliability of our system, we understand that it may cause some inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding and patience.
