NJ Transit crews continue to work around the clock installing temporary poles and new overhead wires near Maplewood following last Monday’s strong winds.
Installation is nearing completion, however, due to the inclement weather this weekend, a downed tree resulted in additional damage to the overhead wires along a section of the rail line near Mountain Station.
As a result, limited service will continue to operate on a modified schedule between South Orange and Penn Station New York and Hoboken on Monday, March 14.
The Gladstone Branch will remain suspended until further notice.
Cross-honoring will remain in effect for Morris & Essex (M&E) and Gladstone Branch customers on the Raritan Valley and Montclair-Boonton Lines as well as NJ TRANSIT and private carrier buses.
The Montclair-Boonton Line will continue to provide enhanced service to accommodate M&E customers.

Limited service will continue to operate on a modified schedule from South Orange to both Penn Station New York and Hoboken. Modified schedules are available HERE.
Customer service ambassadors will be available at South Orange, Summit and Newark Broad St. Stations to assist customers.
Customers at stations between Hackettstown and Denville should use Montclair-Boonton Line trains and should consult the Montclair-Boonton timetables. Enhanced service will operate on the Montclair-Boonton Line. Enhanced Montclair-Boonton Line schedules are available HERE.
