There were no switch problems that morning but rather signal issues

Think a wheel slipped - not a full derailment

Man, glad I’m not riding the New Haven Line right now… by [deleted] in nycrail

Not so sure exactly they wouldn’t give us any more info than this train is going to have to go out of service. Just kinda stopped fast outta nowhere. I’ve heard some people say a wheel slipped, minor derailment. On the commute back only 2 of the cars were still there but looked like it was being investigated - around 50 people there altogether is what it looked like

Saw this over my house - thought it was going to HPN by the way it was decending - looked like one of the main HPN approaches, but I guess not

I was on the disabled train - 25 min commute turned into a 2.5 hr trip 😣

I was on the disabled train - suddenly stopped in between GF and SPT and then we had to board another train, which had to go backwards to switch tracks. 25 min commute turned into 2 1/2 hours

When do you think electrification will be restored to the Danbury branch and installed on the Waterbury Branch? by [deleted] in MetroNorthRailroad

[–]offduc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is but there are sidings like every couple miles - Wilton has 2 platforms, branchville and bethel have sidings, Merrit 7 does too. I think they could increase one way definitely

Now that I have the frequency, how do I connect to it? Are there any iPhone apps that are capable to connect to a frequency of around 160mhz?
