NJ Transit - the nation's third largest transit system - operates buses and rail in the state, providing nearly 1 million weekday trips, including into New York City. As of 12:01 a.m. Friday, all NJ Transit commuter trains stopped running.

Just 10 hours into a historic NJ Transit strike that put the state’s commuter rail system in a standstill, stranding 100,000 riders, Gov. Phil Murphy vowed to keep negotiating— but in a way that won’t bankrupt the agency.

Groups of picketers gathered in front of transit headquarters in Newark and at the Hoboken Terminal, carrying signs that said “Locomotive Engineers on Strike” and “NJ Transit: Millions for Penthouse Views Nothing for Train Crews.”
