LIRR station waiting rooms will remain open around-the-clock through Friday afternoon, January 24, to accommodate customers waiting for trains during cold and inclement weather.

Customers are advised to allow extra travel time and use caution on platforms and stairs and while boarding/exiting trains.

LIRR personnel are working around the clock to clear snow from tracks and station platforms. Switch heaters have been activated and special anti-freeze trains are coating the tracks with de-icer in an effort to prevent ice build-up on the rails. Extra LIRR personnel have been assigned to critical locations so they can respond quickly if problems occur.

If snow accumulations reach 10-13 inches, the LIRR may temporarily suspend service for the safety of customers and employees, and to clear snow from tracks.
