Amtrak service between Philadelphia, New York fully restored
Train service between Philadelphia and New York City has been fully restored, but riders may still experience delays, Amtrak said Monday. Service was temporarily suspended due to overhead wire damage.
Amtrak said trains running from 30th Street Station in West Philadelphia to Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station were impacted.
"Crews are addressing this issue," Amtrak said in an announcement online. "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience as we work through this unexpected situation."
Amtrak said customers impacted by the shutdown will likely receive accommodations with similar departure times on another day.
The company said it will waive charges for customers who need to change their reservations because of the modified schedule. Customers can call 1-800-USA-RAIL to make any necessary changes.
NJ Transit rail service to and from Penn Station in New York City was also delayed Monday morning due to overhead wire problems.
