Excerpt:

New Jersey's public transportation system states it has actually restored rail service into New York City to pre-Superstorm Sandy levels. NJ Transit Executive Director James Weinstein states complete restoration marks another milestone since the majority of consumers commute to and from Manhattan. NJ Transit states rail operations systemwide will reach 94 percent of pre-Sandy service levels on Monday, with 658 of the 700 weekday trains arranged prior to the storm functional. The transit agency suffered an estimated $400 million in damage to its rail vehicles, locomotives and infrastructure in the superstorm. The late October storm got rid of people in 10 states but hit New York and New Jersey the hardest, flooding neighborhoods and destroying houses. It's New Jersey's worst natural catastrophe.
