Dark message: All branches 'suspended systemwide'
It was a surreal sight.
On its website, a URL relied upon by tens of thousands of commuters daily to get where they’re going, every branch of the Long Island Rail Road was reported “suspended.”
Railroad unions went on strike after midnight Saturday. No date has been set for negotiations to resume.
The message at the top of the website, posted at 12:21 a.m. said service “is suspended systemwide because of a strike. Work from home if possible.”
