Mass Transit Disruption
#LIRR service is temporarily suspended #Manhattan-bound service between Jamaica Stationn & #PennStation and Woodside Station & Penn Station due to a third rail problem in one of the East River Tunnels. #NYC Transit will cross-honor LIRR fares on all #ELine trains to Penn Station at the following stations: #Jamaica (Stuphin Blvd-Archer Avenue), #KewGardens (Union Turnpike) and #ForestHills (71st Avenue). At #Woodside, customers will be accommodated by #7Line trains, at 61st Avenue, for Manhattan-bound service. Customers can also take the LIRR to Atlantic Terminal (#Brooklyn) and connect to the 2 or 3 trains for LIRR service to Penn Station.
LIRR customers should also expect cancellations and delays this evening as service remains suspended in both directions between Huntington and Port Jefferson Stations while repairs to a broken rail are underway. Limited bus service is being provided. Customers are advised to use the Ronkonkoma Branch as an alternative.
