NEW YORK CITY — Some service along the Metro-North's Harlem Line remained suspended Wednesday morning after one of its trains crashed in Westchester, killing 6 people and injuring 15.
Transit officials don't know when regular service will resume.
Train service in the Harlem Line was shut down between Pleasantville and North White Plains, disrupting travel along the line "until further notice," the MTA said.
Trains running from Manhattan to North White Plains were running normally.
Buses were running between North White Plains and Pleasantville, where trains would continue north.
Commuters can also take a bus from the Southeast station to Beacon and board the Hudson Line straight to Manhattan.
The MTA added that it would would cross-honor Harlem Line tickets on the Hudson and New Haven lines.

The suspension comes after a northbound Harlem Line train left Grand Central Terminal at 5:45 p.m. Tuesday, crashing into a Jeep Cherokee at a rail crossing in Valhalla, N.Y., about 45 minutes later, officials said.
The third rail wedged into the train's front car, which then burst into flames, officials said. Six people died and 15 people were injured, but their conditions were not immediately clear, MTA officials said.
Federal investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board planned to review the scene for up to seven days, they said during a Wednesday morning press conference.
Some service on the Harlem Line could resume before then, but MTA officials did not know when.
The NTSB will determine when trains can start running again, the MTA said.
