Glen Rock NJ, Glen Rock firefighters required mutual aid assistance from fire departments in several nearby communities to battle a series of brush fires along NJ Transit train tracks in their Borough that temporarily disrupted rail service on NJ Transit’s Main & Bergen Lines on Saturday afternoon, 10/21. No injuries were reported related to the blazes, but there were multiple property damage reports (fences, light poles, etc.). The fires were reportedly started by a defective part on an NJ Transit train that made it as far as Harriman, NY (with no fires reported anywhere else other than in Glen Rock).
