I got this text message tonight on the way home:
"Due to a disabled AMTRAK train, trains operating in and out of NYPS are subject to 15 - 30 minute delays."
NYPS has at least 10-15 tracks that I am aware of. One dilapidated Amtrak rattle box is causing widespread delays ? This is laughable and is clearly a case of NJTransit screwing up and using Amtrak as an excuse.
North East Corridor was running 30 late and I didn't feel like dealing with NJTransit today. It was a good moment to investigate using light trail in Jersey City, which may prove useful in the future if for one reason or another I don't want to take my regular commuter train.
It took me about 45 mins to get to the Liberty State Park park-and-ride. In total it took me about the same time to get to work as if I were to take my regular NEC train on a good day with no delays.
