Extra Metro-North 'Yankee Clipper' Trains Added For Red Sox Series

HUDSON VALLEY, NY —Metro-North is adding "Yankee Clipper" trains for Yankees fans headed to and from the upcoming series with Boston (Red Sox fans should probably just check with the concierge at the motel about a taxi or "cah" service to the game).

Metro-North Railroad announced that it will be helping fans experience Aaron Judge's historic season this Thursday through Sunday, as one of the longest standing rivalries in sports returns to Yankee Stadium. The railroad said it is adding service to make sure fans can cheer on the Bronx Bombers as they take on the Boston Red Sox with games at 7:15 p.m. on Thursday, 7:05 p.m. on Friday, 1:05 p.m. on Saturday, and 7:08 p.m. on Sunday.

The extra trains will run on the Hudson, Harlem and New Haven Lines, and regularly scheduled Hudson Line trains will make extra stops at Yankees-E 153rd St. 

Metro-North already operates "Trains to The Game at Yankee Stadium" on the Hudson, Harlem and New Haven Lines for every home game, and is adding service on the New Haven Line to handle the larger crowds expected for the four-game Red Sox series Thursday-Sunday.

On the New Haven Line, in addition to the regular Yankee Clipper direct trains to the stadium and the frequent connecting trains available via Harlem/125th St Station, on Thursday and Friday nights after the game, there will be an additional Yankee Clipper train directly home on the New Haven Line, and on Saturday and Sunday there will be an extra Yankee Clipper train directly to and from the games. In total, on Saturday and Sunday, headed to the game, there will be two Yankee Clipper trains directly from New Haven and one Yankee Clipper train directly from Stamford to the game, and after the game Metro-North will operate four Yankee Clipper trains directly home, with three operating through to New Haven and one local train directly to Stamford.

On the Hudson Line, in addition to the normal Yankee Clipper express and local trains from Poughkeepsie and Croton-Harmon to Yankee Stadium and returning home after the game, there will also be several express and local Hudson Line trains that make additional stops at Yankees/ E 153rd St. Station.

On the Harlem Line, the normal Yankee Clipper train will run directly between Harlem Line stations and Yankees/ E 153rd St Station, returning home after the game, and there will be frequent trains which connect at Harlem/125th St Station with Hudson Line and Shuttle trains for the short ride to and from the stadium.

Extra shuttle trains will also operate between Grand Central Terminal, Harlem/125th St. Station and Yankees/E 153rd St. Station.

All Yankee Clipper trains, extra trains, connecting trains, ticket information and fares are available on the MTA TrainTime app and on the website. Full Metro-North schedules can be found here.
