Ridgewood NJ, New Jersey Transit’s Bergen County line could be suspended in both directions through the evening rush hour today after a train hit a disabled truck earlier today.
Bergen Line train service was suspended in both directions shortly after the accident around 12:30 p.m. on Friday.
The accident happened near the Plauderville station in Garfield. Sources say a tanker truck hauling paint pellets got stuck on the tracks and was then hit by a NJ Transit train.
