Full Service to be Restored to Trenton Line
Tuesday, September 6, 2011
SEPTA will resume full rail service on the Trenton Regional Rail Line on Tuesday morning, Sept. 6, 2011. Regularly scheduled train service will begin with the start of the service day.
Trenton Regional Rail Line service was disrupted due to record flooding from Hurricane Irene, which caused damage to Amtrak signal equipment near the Trenton Transit Center. These signals are critical to the safe operation of SEPTA Trenton Line trains and, therefore, SEPTA has been unable to provide full rail service over the last week. Trenton Line trains have been operating to-and-from Center City and Levittown, with shuttle buses providing service between Levittown and Trenton.
SEPTA would like to thank Amtrak and its crews for the round-the-clock work to make these repairs, which will allow SEPTA to restore normal service for its Trenton Line customers starting with the Tuesday morning commute. SEPTA would also like to thank riders for their patience during this service disruption.
