Effective Monday, April 12, 2021, Metro-North will restore weekend/holiday service to Wassaic, and to Manitou and Appalachian Trail, and will make schedule adjustments to the weekday schedules on the Harlem and New Haven Lines.
On the Harlem Line, replacement of track switches north of Hartsdale station will require a single-track operation between Scarsdale and North White Plains stations for approximately 4 months. To accommodate work, a total of five AM and PM roundtrip trains between Grand Central Terminal (GCT) and North White Plains will be truncated at Crestwood station and there will be minor schedule adjustments to 22 other trains.
On the New Haven Line, an early morning inbound train from New Haven is added, and a stop at Greenwich, CT. is added to two New Haven express trains. Additional service is added to New Rochelle, Larchmont, Mamaroneck, Harrison and Stamford Stations.
Please note: New York and Connecticut State laws require face masks be worn on all Metro-North trains, stations and at Grand Central Terminal, regardless of vaccination status, and regardless of social distancing.
The schedule details are as follows:
