Switch Problems, Overhead Wire Problems, Derailments, Signal Problems and Escalators not working.
The end of a Great Facility, since neither Amtrak nor its tenants have money to invest into the failing facility. Yes the NE Corridor is deteriorating before our eyes. Fortunately for myself, my daily commute is now only once or twice a month. AEM-7’s from the 1980's continue to pull regional trains along the corridor, (usually double headed), while NJ Transit has retired 40 or so ALP-44 from the 1990's. It is heart breaking to see the remains of the Great PRR failing at such a rapid rate. And I have not addressed the major problem; the two tunnels under the Hudson River and the Portal Bridge which are over 100 years old. Wait until they fail, no service from the South into New York City. Where are the visionaries??? Regards to all Jerry
