after it was announced that the last train out of Penn Station would be at 8:05 p.m"I was like, I'll catch the next train - there's way too many people here, everybody is standing by the way. All the cars are full," Mirza Razzaq said"I was on the New Jersey Transit app, it said there were trains after that - the 3883. I come back, they're all canceled," he added.
Dozens of trains were canceled throughout the day on Friday as Penn Station was jammed with frustration.
