NJ Transit Re-Routes Trains Through Hoboken Terminal

Due to a derailment in New York on Tuesday morning, NJ Transit will be rerouting midtown direct trains through the Hoboken terminal, according to an NJ Transit release on Tuesday afternoon.

Here are the changes:

• Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast Line trains will operate limited service to and from New York Penn Station, subject to 60 to 90 minute delays in both directions. 
• Midtown Direct trains will operate to and from Hoboken Terminal for the remainder of the service day.  Customers can connect to PATH in Hoboken at no additional charge.
• Some trains will be combined or cancelled this evening.  Expect crowding conditions onboard trains.
• All trains to and from Hoboken Terminal will be subject to 15 to 20 minute delays due to congestion from Midtown Direct trains.

NJ Transit is cross honoring tickets for the rest of the day on Tuesday in Newark, Hoboken and New York.

Two cars of a ten-car train derailed on Tuesday morning, according to NJ Transit.

"As a result of the derailment, trains will have limited access to and from the Hudson River tunnel for service into and out of New York Penn Station until further notice," according to NJ Transit.
