NEW YORK (AP) — Trains are set to resume rolling on the Long Island Rail Road on Tuesday after a deal was reached to end a strike that had shut down the busiest commuter rail system in the country.
Commuters in the New York City suburbs will still have to muddle through another tough morning rush hour, as trains won't be running in time for the commute into work, railroad officials said after the deal was announced late Monday.
The LIRR urged riders to work from home again Tuesday if possible. Free but limited shuttle buses will still be offered from a handful of locations on Long Island to subway stations in New York City.
