• Train Derailment in Nyc Disrupts Rush-Hour Commute

NEW YORK - Commuters inched homeward by bus, hitched rides with friends and waved down taxis Tuesday after a derailed train earlier in the day disrupted rail traffic across Northeast. The accident forced authorities to shut down one of the two rail tunnels used by Amtrak and New Jersey Transit trains between Manhattan and New Jersey. Both inbound and outbound trains were sharing the remaining tunnel.

The virtual shutdown of New Jersey will continue today, with NJ Transit and PATH suspending rail service by noon, buses and light- rail ceasing around 6 p.m. and the Garden State Parkway remaining closed to southbound traffic near the shore. Meanwhile, more than 24 hours before Hurricane Irene was due to touch down, North Jersey towns were making final preparations Friday for possible flooding, downed trees and power outages as the storm slowly inched its way up the Eastern Seaboard.
