Metro-North Railroad Announces Restoration of Train Service on Upper Hudson Line and Upper Harlem Line

MTA Metro-North Railroad  announced the restoration of limited northbound train service on the Hudson Line. On Wednesday, the Hudson Line will operate nearly full service, starting with the morning peak.

Also starting Wednesday morning, Upper Harlem Line service will return to its normal schedule for Wednesday, with train service resuming to and from Wassaic. The restoration of service comes less than two days after service had to be suspended on the Hudson Line Sunday afternoon and on the Upper Harlem Line Monday morning due to storm damage.

Metro-North crews worked since Sunday night to perform rehabilitation work on both lines. Crews cleared fallen trees, mud and boulders from sections of track where the rushing water had risen well above the rails. Crews will continue clean up along the Hudson Line as the railroad works to restore full regularly scheduled service on the line.
