"Please allow for extra travel time to/from Grand Central," Metro-North wrote on its website. "Customers are encouraged to use the North End Access to the Terminal at either the 47th & Madison or 48th & Park Entrances."
Thousands of protesters are expected outside the Grand Hyatt, where Trump is booked for a $1,000-a-plate New York State Republican Gala. Fellow GOP hopefuls Ted Cruz and John Kasich are also expected to attend.
The hotel is next to Grand Central Station.
A Facebook page is urging people to rally and protest against Trump's bid for the presidency:
"We have listened for long enough. Now it is time to come together against hate. It is time to stand on the shoulders of those who built our city, and come together as New Yorkers and say, 'Mr. Trump - you do not speak for us; you do not represent us and we will not let your bigotry, xenophobia, misogyny, racism and hatred go unanswered anymore.'
"Since June, we have listened to Donald Trump attack women, Mexicans, Muslims, the disabled, and anyone who didn't support Making America Hate Again. We have listened to Mr. Trump encourage his supporters to 'knock the hell' out of protesters offering to pay their legal fees and suggest that he’d like to 'punch (a protester) in the face.'
"On this day we will come together, and say no to his thirst for hatred, and violence."
According to the post, a rally will begin at 4 p.m. at the southeast corner of 42nd Street and 7th Avenue, with a march to the Grand Hyatt stepping off at 5:30.
