A Bull Caused Chaos On Tracks Near NYC, And The Jokes Are The Best Part
"Steer clear of Newark."
A bull somehow made its way onto the train tracks in Newark, New Jersey.
NJ TRANSIT rail service is subject to up to 45 minute delays between Newark Penn and PSNY, due to Police activity near Newark Penn Station. NJ TRANSIT rail tickets and passes are being cross-honored by PATH and Hoboken, Newark Penn and 33rd Street New York.

The whole thing is incredibly fitting for the New York/New Jersey transit system.

As expected, the best part of this whole thing are the jokes.
I sure hope NJ Transit is able to steer its way out of this one. https://t.co/YS1dtaDmAo

NJ Transit’s service is terribull. Why can’t the trains keep mooving? https://t.co/vkzZ85eZqf
