The speedy new schedule puts the long-awaited renovation on what President Trump’s administration called “Trump Time,” ABC7 first reported.

President Trump’s Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is expected to detail the plan while standing alongside Andy Byford, the Amtrak official now in charge of turning the much-hated transit hub around, officials said.

Trump effectively fired the MTA from the project in April, putting the feds in charge after years of stops and starts by the state-run agency.

The move put two parallel Penn Station projects — one to reconstruct the crumbling building and another to expand its rail capacity — under the same umbrella.

White House officials later brought on Byford, the much-respected former president of NYC Transit cheekily known as “Train Daddy,” to lead the project.

Byford will begin the process Thursday to bring in a master developer for the public-private partnership that the Trump administration is using to redevelop Penn Station, officials said.

The process will start by the end of October, with a final pick made by May 2026, the officials said.

Duffy is also expected to announce that Amtrak will receive a $43 million grant to jumpstart the project.
