Disabled Train Delays Evening Rush at Penn Station

A disabled train caused another evening of headaches for commuters at Penn Station.

It led to cancellations and residual delays on the Long Island Rail Road during the peak of the evening rush, as well as delays on New Jersey Transit.

Some people say the string of delays in recent weeks has them frustrated.

"It's constantly an issue with New Jersey Transit," said one commuter. "I love New Jersey Transit, but at the same time, it's like, every week, I'm delayed either going or coming from my commute."

"It's kind of disappointing. Plus, it's bad weather. So I wish I knew earlier," said another.

"It's been like that for like a month between the derailments and broken-down trains. It's been pretty awful," siad a third.

This is the third time this month delays have backed up service at Penn Station.

Back on April 3, an Amtrak train derailed and caused days of delays for commuters.

And just two weeks ago, a New Jersey Transit train lost power and stalled while heading into the city. That also caused long delays right at the start of the evening rush.
