Per John Bobsin: Amtrak has one relevant alert, but reports many delays:
UPDATE: As of 5:49 PM ET: Acela Train 2165 remains stopped south of New York (NYP) due to a trespasser incident along the route ahead. We will provide updates as information becomes available. [This is the train involved.] [Later, report was that 2 were seen but not struck.]
