Metro-North crews continue “working around the clock” to clean up debris on the Hudson Line following a mudslide that took place overnight between the Glenwood and Greystone stations.

The mudslide happened as crews battled the fire that left 12 families displaced, massive Metro-North delays and destroyed two houses.

According to the MTA, crews have restored service on two of the Hudson Line’s four tracks, with efforts continuing to reopen a third in time for the evening commute.

According to the MTA: 

In the northbound direction, five of the 35 scheduled evening rush hour trains will be combined with trains that depart minutes later.

  • The 3:52 p.m. train to Greystone is not operating. To accommodate passengers, the 4:08 p.m. train to Croton-Harmon will make all local stops to Greystone.
  • The 4:36 p.m. train to Croton-Harmon will not operate. To accommodate its passengers, the 4:52 p.m. train to Croton-Harmon will add stops at Yonkers, Hastings-on-Hudson, Dobbs Ferry, Ardsley-on-Hudson, and Irvington.
  • The 5:20 p.m. train to Croton-Harmon will not operate. To accommodate its customers, the 5:23 p.m. local train to Greystone will be extended, making all stops from Hastings-on-Hudson to Croton-Harmon.
  • The 5:40 p.m. train to Croton-Harmon will not operate. To accommodate its customers the 5:43 p.m. local train to Greystone will be extended, making all stops from Hastings-on-Hudson to Croton-Harmon.
