Service disruption - 9/14/08

Just wondering if any of the employees knew exactly what was going on this afternoon.

My guess is a disabled train in between Christopher Street and Hoboken?

They were running NWK-WTC regularly, and implemented instead of the 33st - JSQ via weekend route, the standard 33st-JSQ train, with a Hoboken shuttle between there and Pavonia

Did you check the PATH website on the banner to this forum?

yeah...i'm looking for a more definitive answer from employees... i.e. tunnel letter, caisson number, etc.

It is scheduled work described on the site with explanations and schedules.

I doubt that having car equipment problems is scheduled work...look at the live alert...they still haven't taken it down...I don't know what scheduled work you're talking about, where at?

Sunday disruption to service was a passenger train derailment just outside Hoboken by Caisson. No injuries happened about 1:00pm. Took about 8 hours to have normal service restored.

That's along the lines of what I thought, thanks PONYA
