I never understood that phrasing. If the delay is 60 minutes, why wouldn't I just get onto a 5pm train (leaving at 6pm) instead of a 6pm train (leaving at 7pm)? |

Can you bypass the Amtrack bridge by taking the train from Hoboken instead of Penn Station? |

I'M SO SICK, SICK, SICK OF THIS!!! Are we in a 3rd-world country? How many Amtrak problems this spring/summer?!!! I NEEEEEEED to be home relatively on time tonight. But . . . that doesn't matter, apparently. And I don't excuse NJ Transit either, just because it's Amtrak's problem today. Their usual behavior is "On or "close" to schedule. HA!! I love that! 10-15 minutes is not "close" when it comes to trains. Oh, and try, just try to get a seat on the 8:22 (South Orange) to NYC. Atrocious! Breathing heavy. Thinking of what I can't get done tonight, now. |

I picked a good day to work from home... Word is the portal bridge is stuck between Secaucus and Kearny. They have to lower it manually. Was supposed to be done @ this hour. Good luck to everyone getting home! |

Taken from njtransit.com email: Service from between Newark and NYPS has been restored and operating on or close to schedule.
