Metro North is adding trains throughout the Thanksgiving weekend. Off-peak fares will be in effect Thursday through Sunday.  Customers are encouraged to buy tickets in advance. The Family Fare ticket costs $1 per ticket for up to four children ages 5 to 11 when they are traveling with a fare-paying adult.

Historically, the day before Thanksgiving is the busiest travel day of the year for Metro-North customers.  There will be 18 early getaway trains tomorrow departing Grand Central Terminal during the mid-day.  Due to the busier mid-day travel patterns, some evening trains may be canceled or combined.

Metro North is adding early morning inbound trains on Thursday and extra midday outbound service for local residents headed to and from Grand Central to view the Thanksgiving Day Parade. 

On Friday, Metro-North will operate on an expanded Saturday schedule with additional inbound service in the morning and outbound service in the afternoon to accommodate the Friday workforce and Black Friday shoppers.
