Power problems again disrupt SEPTA rail

Power problems again caused problems on SEPTA's Regional Rail lines during this morning's rush hour.

Power problems again caused problems on SEPTA's Regional Rail lines during this morning's rush hour.

SEPTA reported delays of up to an hour on the West Trenton line and 30 minutes on all other lines.

Sylvana Hoyos, a SEPTA spokeswoman, said a fuse problem at the Jenkintown station caused the systemwide slow down.

The problem was later fixed and trains were running on or close to schedule, she said.

Twice last month, power problems disrupted service on SEPTA Regional Rail as well as on Amtrak and NJ Transit trains operating on the Northeast Corridor. Those problems involved Amtrak equipment.
