What NJ Transit confirmed
NJ Transit's live Main/Bergen–Port Jervis notice says train 44—the 4:29 a.m. departure from Port Jervis scheduled into Hoboken at 6:45 a.m.—was canceled because of crew availability at the time of departure. The agency tells customers to take train 46, the 4:59 a.m. Port Jervis departure scheduled into Hoboken at 7:13 a.m.
What the temporary timetable shows in Rockland
The weekday table effective October 11 through November 14 lists train 44 at Sloatsburg at 5:49 a.m. and Suffern at 5:58 a.m. It lists train 46 at 6:20 a.m. and 6:28 a.m. respectively. That is a scheduled 31-minute shift at Sloatsburg, 30 minutes at Suffern and 28 minutes on the Hoboken arrival.
What is not confirmed
The notice does not report a systemwide suspension, a substitute bus for this canceled train or a protected connection. It does not promise that train 46 will operate exactly on the printed schedule. The separate temporary Portal cutover and Port Jervis construction schedules remain in effect.
What changes for a resident: anyone planning to board train 44 at Sloatsburg or Suffern should use train 46 instead and plan for a scheduled Hoboken arrival 28 minutes later, while checking live status before leaving.
