New Haven Metro-North Service Running At 50 Percent

NY1News

Metro-North customers on the New Haven line are going to have to deal with a few more commuting headaches in the days ahead.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority advises riders to expect crowded conditions and delays, possibly for several more weeks, stemming from a cable failure on Wednesday that disrupted service on the line.

Commuters between Stamford and Grand Central Terminal have been forced to use limited service diesel trains, or make other travel plans.

The MTA is hoping to get the line back to 50 percent capacity Monday, once a makeshift electrical substation comes online.
