Amtrak rail service between New York and Boston has been restored after a lightning strike was believed to have caused a circuit breaker to malfunction. Service was restored late Saturday after the malfunction resulted in a power outage on all tracks between Penn Station in New York and Union Station in New Haven, Connecticut, beginning Saturday afternoon. The company says on its website that evening trains between Boston and Virginia were operating on schedule Saturday. Most trains are expected to be on schedule Sunday, although some Sunday train services have been cancelled and others are expected to operate on a modified schedule.
