MIDTOWN — Hoboken train station will partially reopen Monday after a crash left it closed for more than a week, New Jersey Transit announced.

Trains will run in and out of tracks 10 to 17, while tracks 1 to 9 will remain closed for repairs and the National Transportation Safety Board's investigation into the Sept. 29 crash that killed one and injured more than 100.

“When the partial reopening occurs, Main/Bergen County, Pascack Valley and Port Jervis Line trains will return to a weekday schedule, with some adjustments, to and from Hoboken,” NJ Transit said on its website.  

“Select express trains will be eliminated and certain other trains will be combined. Customers are urged to go to njtransit.com for more specific information after 10 p.m. tonight.”

Trains originating west of Montclair State University on the Montclair-Boonton line will operate into Hoboken.

And most Gladstone line trains to Hoboken will be restored.

All North Jersey Coast Line and Raritan Valley Line trains that are supposed to go to Hoboken will continue to terminate at Newark Penn Station.

Other NJ Transit services are still expected to experience crowding and delays.

Cross-honoring will continue on the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail, NJ Transit Bus and private carriers.
