Take a Ride on the Metro-North Railroad: Discounts & Promotions
It may not be the first railroad after you pass “Go” on Monopoly, but the Metro-North Railroad is celebrating New York’s reopening this summer with even more affordable and convenient ways to get to popular attractions, and a special bonus for the kids. In addition to a number of discount offers and promotions for family and friends, Metro-North also has a special passport providing an interactive experience for children and a prize for taking half a dozen rides on the train.
Promotions include the Metro-North Railroad Passport Program for children and families. In coordination with the railroad’s TRACKS (Together Railroads and Communities Keeping Safe) Program, Metro-North offers a passport booklet, featuring safety tips from rail safety superhero Metro-Man, with an area to receive punches from conductors when riding the train. Once, six punches are received, parents can take photos of the punched booklet pages and email to MNRTracks@mnr.org as proof to earn a special prize mailed to their home. Passport booklets are available for pick-up at the Station Masters Office and Info Booth in Grand Central Terminal, or can be download here.
