ICYMI: Statement from Governor Kathy Hochul on Rail Service Impacts of Mudslide in Westchester County

Updated October 21, 2023 4:00 p.m.

“This morning, a mudslide in Westchester County has caused significant disruption to Metro North and Amtrak service. Thankfully, there have been no injuries reported and no individuals are stranded in impacted areas. The MTA has suspended Metro North service between Tarrytown and Croton Harmon, and is working to arrange bus service as replacement transportation for impacted passengers. At this point, our top priority is to restore service as quickly as possible and we are deeply grateful to the hard-working MTA personnel and emergency responders who are working to keep commuters, motorists and all New Yorkers safe.”
