NJ Transit service has resumed in and out of NY Penn Station after a tugboat struck the Portal Bridge in New Jersey, prompting a brief suspension.
NJT first said at 1:34 p.m. that service was delayed 45 minutes due to the bridge strike. At 2:01 p.m. it said all service was suspended. By 2:20 p.m., trains were running in both directions again.
Amtrak said the bridge had been inspected and cleared.
The afternoon disruptions came just a couple of hours after things had finally started returning to normal for train commuters.
The Long Island Rail Road was briefly suspended in and out of Penn Tuesday morning due to power problems, while NJT had 60-minute delays and temporarily diverted some trains due to signal issues.
