Track work starts late Friday and runs into early Sunday. Riders transfer at Babylon and should check which of the three bus zones serves their stop.

The Long Island Rail Road will use buses between Babylon and Montauk from late Friday, November 13, into early Sunday, November 15, for track maintenance, according to the MTA’s planned service alerts. Buses connect with regular Babylon Branch trains at Babylon. Check TrainTime before you leave, as a bus connection can change when you need to depart.
The MTA says buses generally make stops within their own zone and run nonstop between that zone and Babylon. They do not provide local travel between stops in different zones.
The MTA lists Friday’s last affected departures as the 8:50 p.m. train from Jamaica, which ends at Speonk, the 10:36 p.m. from Babylon, and the 10:03 p.m. from Montauk. Train service resumes with the 12:40 a.m. departure from Jamaica on Sunday.
