Metro-North will begin restoring service at the outlying terminal stations after noon Sunday and be fully operational in and out of Grand Central Terminal by 3 p.m. Trains will operate on a Sunday schedule. 

Train riders can check the online timetable for Sunday service, Metro-North Train Time or the interactive schedules page.

Metro-North said crews were continuing to dig out the infrastructure, especially in the Bronx, as they clear snow from the tracks, switches, train yards and stations.
