Rail services in the New York and Orange County areas faced disruptions due to various issues, including a landslide, equipment problems, and a stuck-open bridge, but have since resumed with expected delays. In Orange County, Amtrak and limited Metrolink services were suspended due to cliffside erosion but are set to resume Wednesday, although Metrolink service through San Clemente remains unavailable. In New York, the Hoboken to World Trade Center PATH Train was temporarily suspended due to equipment issues, and NJ Transit and Amtrak services in and out of Penn Station New York were halted because of a bridge malfunction. Services have resumed, but commuters are advised to expect residual delays and a 15% fare increase next year.

commuting into NYC for a last-minute meeting. It's just after *rush hour* but the train is pretty crowded. Might be some additional riders b/c its Wednesday, which is Matinee day on Broadway, but still good to see the affirmational crowds, especially after the article I saw…
