Waiting for my bus at New Brunswick today between 4 and 415pm, I saw northbound:
  • An on-time NJT train at 4:04
  • A late Regional on the Express track
  • An Acela on the Local track
  • The Pennsylvnaian on the Express track.

Brush fires along the tracks between Secaucus and Bergen had all trains into and out of New York stopped while fire fighters worked to put the fires out from 12:30 until about 2:30 P.M.
