Amtrak disruptions continue with downed wires halting service south of Philadelphia
NEW YORK (AP) — Disruptions to Amtrak service on the Northeast corridor are continuing as downed wires have halted service between Philadelphia and Wilmington, Delaware. Meanwhile, service between New York and New Haven, Connecticut, resumed Wednesday about 24 hours after it was suspended because of a fire near a train route in New York City. Amtrak spokesperson Jason Abrams says trains between Philadelphia and Wilmington are stopped due to overhead wires blocking the tracks. He says service between New York and New Haven resumed at around 3 p.m. The New York-New Haven service was halted Tuesday afternoon after a fire broke out along tracks in the Bronx
