Penn Pilot · Commuter guide

NJ Transit tracks at New York Penn Station

Penn Pilot brings upcoming NJ Transit departures and track information together in one board. Open it on your way to the station, find your train, and check the official assignment before boarding.

Find your train

Match the departure time, destination, and train number to your planned trip. Tap a departure for available stop details. This board covers NJ Transit trains leaving New York Penn Station; it does not show LIRR or Amtrak departures.

Official tracks and predictions

An official track comes from NJ Transit DepartureVision. A green predicted track is Penn Pilot’s forecast and can change. When an official assignment becomes available, it replaces the forecast. A blank track means no assignment or prediction is available.

Always follow station displays and staff instructions. Penn Pilot is independent and is not affiliated with NJ Transit.

If the board is delayed

Check the update time and connection status. If live data is unavailable, use NJ Transit DepartureVision. Predictions are not a substitute for official travel information.
