A Nor'easter is expected to bring strong winds and coastal flooding to our area this weekend. Our crews are ready to respond, but there may be changes to subway, bus, or rail service. Check the latest service status on mta.info, or in the MTA app and TrainTime apps. Use caution if you’re traveling, especially when entering or exiting buses and trains. Stay safe, and thank you for riding with us.

Did you know? Mets-Willets Point was once known as United Nations Station. Here's a look back to 80 years ago in 1946, when the United Nations General Assembly took place in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. #ThrowbackThursday

Here’s why Ronkonkoma Branch service is partially suspended for the PM rush: downed PSEG utility poles and wires are blocking the tracks. Crews are working to get full service back on the branch. Check the TrainTime app for real-time updates.

A Penn Station tradition is back.🍻🚆 We celebrated the grand reopening of TRACKS at Penn Station, conveniently located right inside the station — and yes, we even had a priest on hand to bless the taps. Whether you’re meeting coworkers after work, catching up with friends before the train home, or just looking for a place to unwind, TRACKS brings a little camaraderie back to the commute.

If you drop something on the tracks, don't try to get it yourself. Instead, please notify a station employee or call 511. We'll return your belongings safely back to you! #LIRRSafetyTip 📸: nynjfoamer (IG)
