UPDATE Hochul, MTA Announce Restoration of Metro North Rail Service after Mudslide in Westchester County

Kathy Hochul and the MTA announced on Sunday, Oct. 22, that the MTA Metro-North Railroad will operate on a near-normal weekday schedule on Monday, Oct. 23, following a mudslide that occurred in Scarborough on Saturday, as reported, which prevented trains from operating between Tarrytown and Croton-Harmon. To reduce the potential for congestion-related delays, the governor said the railroad is adjusting schedules and canceling four of the 158 trains the railroad operates on the line daily, and during peak hours, trains that operate in the reverse-peak direction will operate express between Tarrytown and Croton-Harmon.
