Service was suspended to and from the station after what the agency called"a minor slow speed derailment."1 of 2: Rail service into and out of Penn Station New York has resumed and is subject to up to 60-minute delays due to a minor slow speed derailment in Penn Station New York. Midtown Direct service is being diverted to Hoboken.An spokesperson told CBS New York a Northeast Corridor train left Trenton at 7:32 a.m. and derailed just before reaching Penn Station at 8:55 a.m.
Passengers ahead of the derailed car moved forward to other cars and onto the platform. Trains behind the derailed car started backing up and heading to Secaucus. "Something needs to change, we can't go on like this. So difficult to predict if you're going to get to work or not, of if you're actually going to get home after work," one passenger said.
"I think everyone's a little agitated, but there's no alternative. What can you do?" said passenger Scott Huffman. Midtown Direct service is being diverted to Hoboken, and tickets are being cross honored by PATH at Newark Penn Station, Hoboken, 33rd St-NY and buses.
