All NJ Transit Train Lines Suspended Friday Night

NEW JERSEY — NJ Transit has suspended rail service for the rest of the day Friday, an agency spokesman told Patch.

The transit agency was forced to cancel a number of trains throughout the day, including during the morning rush. And shortly after 7 p.m., NJ Transit announced they would end train service early because of "illegal job action" on the part of the train engineers' union.

The transit agency did not say why, but had mentioned an engineer shortage earlier in the day.

NJ Transit said they "became aware of a rumor" late Thursday that the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLE&T) union might initiate an "illegal job action" Friday, having engineers "mark off" work for the Juneteenth holiday.

The state recognized Juneteenth as a holiday on Friday, but NJ Transit told Patch that the engineers' union did not sign a contract giving them Friday off of work.
