On Saturday, February 20, the Division ran the 28th annual Grand Central Terminal tour. Unfortunately, those in attendance suffered a start delay problem, due to miscommunication with our friends at Metro North. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the delay, and hope everyone who took the tour enjoyed it.
The N.Y. Division of the ERA is pleased to announce its 28th annual guided tour of Grand Central Terminal on Saturday, February 20, 2010. This magnificent Terminal, officially dedicated on February 2, 1913, is now better than ever after comprehensive restoration work.
Representatives of MTA Metro-North Railroad will be our hosts to point out interesting features of the Terminal, both old and new. In addition to the architectural and structural points to be visited, we will see various types of locomotives and car equipment. We will learn about upcoming plans for GCT, such as the LIRR East Side Access. There is always something going on at GCT, and you can have lunch at one of the many restaurants in the Lower Level Dining Concourse or on the balconies.
Ticket Price: $10 Per Person
