The Hampton’s Cannonball Express train from Manhattan will begin service out of Penn Station as of Memorial Day.

The whistle will blow on Friday afternoons as you sit back and let the conductor do all the work.

For a mere $27 you will be able to take a direct ride out east… in 94 minutes you will arrive in Westhampton Beach then off to Montauk.

It happens to be the longest train operated by LIRR with 14 cars including 2 locomotives, transporting 1,400 riders each day.

If you’re feeling particularly celebratory, you can pay an additional $20 to reserve a seat in special cars with food and drinks available.

Hassle free Fridays…. Gotta luv it!
