Metro-North Railroad and New Jersey Transit won’t operate regular rail service today as a result of infrastructure damage caused by Hurricane Irene during the weekend.
Metro-North sustained “significant damage to many portions” of its system. NJ Transit’s Port Jervis and Pascack Valley lines also are closed today.
