No, not fake news. I am on a NJ Transit train, and they announced that it is being re-routed to Hoboken, and that there is no train service in and out of New York right now. I hope that it's something benign or precautionary

Somebody sounds misinformed. Either you or the train operator who meant "this train won't be going"

Thanks, D1. Okay, at least that's an presumably an accident or human error.

Thanks K2. On my phone, and saw nothing yet on Google News or on NJT's Twitter feed

This is true. They're routing trains into Hoboken or Secaucus and onto other tracks to NY though. Major delays.

I took the path in from jc and was fine

Associates, how did you balance your morning sickness and fatigue in early pregnancy with work? Thankfully I’m still WFH, but worried about receiving insane turnarounds that require me to stay up late/all night and the effect it might have on the baby. I’m past my hours for the year and feel like I should be able to say no, but the team I’m on has a tendency to push past no’s.
