MTA Metro-North Railroad Service Advisories

New Harlem Line Timetable Effective December 5

Port Jervis Line Busing Update

CityTicket Holiday Suspension, Nov. 20, 2004-Jan. 2, 2005

The New M7 Cars



New Harlem Line Timetable Effective December 5
 A new Harlem Line schedule will go into effect on December 5. Copies will be made available the week of November 29. Please be sure to pick one up and familiarize yourself with the changes.

This change is in response to your requests for a review of the previous schedule issued October 31. While we adjusted equipment assignments and train routing, and fixed cars that were damaged and out of service due to "slip slide" conditions, there continued to be issues of reliability (e.g. the timeliness with which trains pass through White Plains Station in the AM Peak). We determined that a new schedule should be issued to improve the reliability of your commute.
