The Port Washington Branch of the LIRR has added additional trains for those visiting Super Bowl Boulevard in Manhattan in the week leading up to the big game.
Beginning Wednesday, Jan. 29 through Friday, Jan. 31 three extra Penn Station-bound trains will depart Great Neck in addition to regularly scheduled trains between 4:25 p.m. and 6:04 p.m:
- 4:25 p.m. train from Great Neck, making all local stops through Woodside, arriving Penn Station at 5:00 p.m.
- 5:15 p.m. train from Great Neck, making all local stops through Woodside, arriving Penn Station at 5:50 p.m.
- 6:04 p.m. train from Great Neck, making all local stops through Woodside, arriving Penn Station at 6:40 p.m.
“Even if you aren’t lucky enough to have a Super Bowl ticket, Long Islanders can still be part of the excitement by visiting Super Bowl Boulevard in the days leading up to the Big Game,” said LIRR President Helena E. Williams. “It should be a fun family experience for football fans of all ages. And the LIRR will leave you just steps away from all the action.”
Super Bowl Boulevard, which runs for 13 blocks along Broadway in Midtown Manhattan, features fan interactive experiences including a seven-story toboggan run.
