New Jersey Transit suspended rail service into and out of New York City on Friday evening after a day of canceled trains because of a lack of engineers.
"NJ Transit is disappointed that the union would perpetrate such an act on the more than 100,000 commuters who depend on NJ Transit rail service every day," the state-operated transit corporation said in a statement. "We intend to explore all legal remedies in response to this illegal and irresponsible action."

An email message seeking comment was left by the Associated Press with the union’s local chairperson Friday.
