As of 0300 Sunday trains 128, 65, 67, 169, 674, 30 all seervice disruption at or near Newark.  Problem started at about midnight or shortly after.

Is it possible that it has something to do with Portal bridge ? On top of that the firing of north Portal bridge manager.  is has become known that the location around present Portal bridge has settlement issuse.

Evidently OCS wire issues.  Now where problem was is unknown but will wait to see if happened around Portal bridge.w
