Delays And Suspensions On Regional Rail, Amtrak Lines

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) --- SEPTA's regional rail service on the Paoli-Thorndale line was suspended for several hours this morning due to downed wires.

Service on that line went out before dawn and was restored shortly after 11am.

Service has also been restored on the Airport and Wilmington-Newark lines, but Septa said delays of up to an hour were possible on the Wilmington-Newark lines.

And, the transit agency warned, if you are taking the Airport line, be prepared for residual delays while full service resumes.

For current updates on all routes, visit SEPTA's System Status page.

In addition to issues on SEPTA lines, Amtrak was reporting delays on its Northeast Corridor service between Washington and Philadelphia.

Amtrak's Keystone Service, between Philadelphia and Harrisburg, Pa., was temporarily suspended because of severe weather this morning.

Amtrak crews were working to restore service as quickly and safely as possible.

Amtrak says if you're traveling on the Northeast Corridor this morning, be prepared for delays.
