In deference to Mr. Mayo's request (ain't you glad you don't vote over here, can sit back and laugh at the nonsense, and be thankful your pols back home don't go through all this malarkey to get elected?) on the preceding page, the linked Bulletin would suggest that, while hardly "back to normal" that operations have resumed the length of the NEC:
As of a few moments ago, a random check of #94(2) an "LD" NPN-BOS Regional shows that such is estimated BAL 22ML, yet NYP 5ML, and BOS OT. Actual? tune in later.
Empire Corridor remains "out"; 48-49, Lake Shore, are annulled, but 448-449 will operate BOS-CHI. Conceivably, passengers originating NYP could connect at SPG. On that point, one must wonder if the existing 448-449 consist of one Sleeper and a Cafe have been expanded to include cars temporarily released from 48-49

It's departed Newark, NJ 26 late and predicted NYP 24 late. I guess that means at least some trains are running through NYP.

It departed 16 late, so I guess things are going... swimmingly?... at NYP. It was scheduled to sit there for a while though, hence the ability to make up 8 minutes.

While by no means does the on time performance yesterday of one train, selected on the strength that it was going the extreme length of the Corridor (NPN-BOS), mean Corridor operations are "back to normal", it does mean that there is hope restoration is not too far off.
Marathon? sob sob; only question; why wasn't it CXLD Tuesday morning?

Why not cancelled on Tuesday? $$$$$$$$. I am sure the NYC Chamber of Commerce (or it's equivalent) was leaning heavily on all involved to proceed with the Marathon.
