Those coming to the event from points west have the option to avoid the traffic and arrive by train, as the Long Island Rail Road will add a train specifically for the occasion. It will leave Speonk at 10:19 a.m., with stops at all stations between there and East Hampton, where it arrives at 11:02. Later in the day, there is a return train to Speonk departing East Hampton at 4 p.m. Tickets cost $7 each way.
