Metro-North RR back on track -- and late -- this morning

Metro-North Railroad is restoring much of its service this morning, after trains were pulled from the tracks Monday in advance of Hurricane Sandy's onslaught.

The service between New Haven and Grand Central Terminal in New York City is already encountering early problems, with the railroad reporting delays of approximately 10 to 15 minutes because of slippery rail conditions.

Fares today will be waived at the direction of Gov. Dannel Malloy.

However, service on the New Canaan, Danbury and Waterbury branch lines will remain suspended today as storm cleanup continues.
