NEW YORK - Train service between New York City and Albany is suspended Sunday due to safety concerns.
Amtrak Northeast cited "structure issues of a non-Amtrak, privately owned building above the Empire Line tracks in New York City."
It is unclear what kind of damage there is to the building and or the tracks below.
For now, Amtrak says customers with reservations on these trains will be accommodated with similar departure times or another day.
They also said they would waive any additional charges for customers looking to change their reservation.
