Drive to New London Ct. or Old Saybrook CT. and take Shore Line East Train #1693 Dep: New London 7:55PM or Dep: Old Saybrook (next stop down the line with more secure IMHO and free parking) at 8:15PM. Arrive New Haven at 9:00PM and connect with Metro North Train 1593 Dep: 9:16PM ARR: Grand Central at 10:59 or take AMTRAK 1197 out of New Haven at 9:11PM with arrival at NYP at 1045PM. I think but not sure that the Shoreline East/Metro North is a guarenteed connection, others may know for sure.
