UPDATE March 6, 2015 5:00PM:

Metro-North has issued a press release to explain the delays.

An Explanation For This Morning’s (Friday, March 6) Delays

“The significant delays that you experienced this morning were caused by electric trains that became disabled in the critical area around Harlem-125th Street Station at approximately 8 AM.

“The trains were unable to draw power from the third rail because of snow and ice conditions resulting from yesterday’s continuation of harsh winter weather.

“Today’s incidents took two of four tracks out of service during the height of the rush hour at two vital points in the area between Mott Haven in the Bronx and Grand Central Terminal where all three lines converge, therefore limiting our operating flexibility.

“Other weather-related infrastructure and equipment problems also occurred at various locations along our territory due to the harsh cold weather.

“These issues combined to cause significant train congestion and delays through the morning rush hour.

“We regret any inconvenience you experienced because of these incidents.

“We appreciate your patience as we continue to work around the clock to clear our trains, station platforms, yards and switches of snow and ice.”
