trenton and new york city, if you can get to trenton you can take new jersey transit with your amtrak this is new, also, coming into to us, atlantic city rail line right now between 30th street station and pennsauken will not run. so, now this is also impacting the atlantic city rail line. impacting septa as well. the trenton line uses the same tracks. the from end ton line -- trenton line will not run through the day. septa says it's possible it may not run through the rest of the week. it's yet to come how long the impacts are lasting at this point. chestnut hill east line is running on the and time, chestnut hill west line not running. also affecting local closures through port richmond. more on that coming up. >> karen thanks so much. >>> we'll have continuing coverage of this accident throughout the day on "action news" on 6abc.com and our 6abc news apps. stay with our many platforms to get any breaking developments plus pictures and video from the scene. >> now it's time to turn to dave murphy who will give us a sense of the weather for people out there working. >> only one weat

, the end of the line, trenton station over to the west trenton station. and then they'll have extra service running on the west trenton line coming into downtown. so you can drive to the trenton station take the shuttle bus service. another option would be driving to the corn wells height park and ride. take advantage of that huge parking lot that is there. ninety-five in woodhaven road, shuttle buses will take commuters over to the market frankford line at the frankford transportation center, and bring you into downtown. new jersey transit's game plan pretty much same, same concept, from the trenton station, you can use the river line down to the patco high-speed line and take the patco line up and over the benny into toward downtown philadelphia. pack your patience, parking is going to be an issue septa throws out couple of tips like carpooling, or maybe having someone drop you off at some of the stations, because some of these smaller stations obviously don't have the larger parking lots. let's go now to the amtrak situation. service suspended again to

from the trenton station over to the west trenton station from there septa has beefed up service on it west trenton regional rail line, extra trains extra cars, for the rush hour. or you can drive to the corn wells height park and ride, which is right there along i-95 at woodhaven road, from there, septa will provide shuttle buses to its market frankford line's transportation center, and from there you can take the market frankford el into downtown. or of course, you can drive to anyone of the stations along either the west trenton or the fox chase line. let's go to new jersey transit's options. from the trenton station, you can use the river line, down to the patco line, and from there, you take the patco high-speed line, over the bridge in toward philadelphia. amtrak here's the latest, thursday suspended service today, from new york to philadelphia. same deal as yesterday. that includes the regional and the asela express. of course, all of the roadways that run parallel to the tracks are going to see extra volume today. the roosevelt boulevard i-95 keep in mind, give yourself extr

so septa's trenton regional rail line would be the line for the commuters. the local commuters that work their way from trenton you come across the river and then all of the stops through bucks county that park and ride the cornwells heights park and ride, folks park their car there and then continue the trip into downtown so they can avoid that 95 construction mess. so we're thinking alternate today. obviously you can take the car, coming into center city. or work your way over to one of the options the west trenton, or the fox chase line will give you access into center city. if you are leaving philadelphia and you take the train north up toward new york or the trenton area, you can take the patco high-speed line will take you that's the train over the ben franklin as soon as you're on the jersey side, you pick up the new jersey transit river line. that's the light rail line runs up along the river why think call it the river line up through all of the south jersey neighborhoods you get right into trenton. then once in trenton the new jersey transit train
