The Village of Montauk is once again holding its popular annual St. Patrick's Day Parade, and the LIRR will be there to provide extra train service before and after the parade on Sunday, March 26.
Festivities start at 10 a.m. with the parade set to kick off on Main Street at 11:30 a.m.
To ensure that all LIRR customers arrive safely in Montauk and return home safely later that day, no beverages of any kind will be allowed aboard Montauk trains. The MTA Police will strictly enforce this rule by confiscating all beverages, alcoholic or non-alcoholic, opened or unopened, they find on trains.
The LIRR will operate two extra morning eastbound trains before the parade and one extra westbound afternoon train after the parade.
A full timetable showing all train service to and from the parade, including the special trains, is available at this link:
