Amtrak, NJ Transit service delayed between Philadelphia & New York
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Amtrak trains are still running with residual delays after a power issue temporarily suspended service from Philadelphia to New York Thursday.
The issues were due to overhead power problems at Metropark station in Iselin, New Jersey.
NJ Transit said the Northeast Corridor line's service was suspended between Trenton and Metropark and the North Jersey Coast Line will experience delays.
Earlier Thursday morning, no Amtrak trains were moving between Philadelphia and New York. There is limited service for trains leaving New York for Philly.
The Keystone line is also affected and is only moving between Philadelphia and Harrisburg right now, Amtrak said.
The issue began shortly before 7 a.m.
Amtrak issued a statement at 8 a.m. about the issue and said crews are working to restore service.
There was no substitute transportation available.
NJT tickets will be honored on buses and private lines, the agency said in a tweet.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
