Nj Transit | USsPost.com:Here’s an update for all those traveling by train:

Amtrak and NJ Transit trains are moving again, but expect 45-minute delays from an overhead wire problem earlier this morning.

Trains along the Northeast Corridor, Midtown Direct and North Jersey Coast Line were effected earlier when a NJ Transit train hit an overhead wire in the south tunnel in Manhattan.

That caused delays for Amtrak trains along the Northeast Corridor. It also slowed NJ Transit service on the Northeast Corridor, Midtown Direct and North Jersey Coast Line.

PATH is cross-honoring NJ Transit rail passes in Newark and Hoboken
