I really needed this. It must have been the hotest day in over a decade. I got to Newark Penn Station and the departure board said that the 4:27 to NYC would be 15 minutes late. OK, I'll wait it out. 30 minutes later the train did not come, so I had to take the PATH. The cars were air conditioned, but since it makes many stops on the NJ and NY side of the Hudson, it is a very slow ride. I finally made it home at 6:45 PM almost an hour longer than usual. There are always train delays but why today!Tuesday, July 6, 2010

Oh no! I had it bad too. I was on the train between the cars and it was an oven! and then my train got stuck at elizabeth train station. My husband drove to pick me up. It took him maybe 20 minutes, the train was still there when we left.
