All NYA east of KO operations are done at night. I am not sure what time they go to Yaphank but I know they are there every night. Your best bet would be there around 11PM as the last scoot of the night heads west around 10:45PM. Be prepared to hang out and hopefully by 12:30AM they will show. If they are not there by 2:30AM then they probably wont be coming then. Good luck and hope this helps.

I have also posted a link in this forum about the same topic only difference is it is mostly about freight activity in Riverhead. Here is a link for your convenience:

Definitely will be at night for the next two months, as the line east of KO will be undergoing trackwork through November 3rd.
