RailPhotos 5

STV joined New York City’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) and MTA Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) to celebrate the opening of Grand Central Madison, a new 700,000-square-foot terminal and concourse below Grand Central Terminal.

The new facility and service is a part of a long-term plan to expand LIRR capacity and bring commuters from Long Island and Queens directly to the East Side of Manhattan.

LIRR tracks at Grand Central are accessed via escalators on the mezzanine level.
