On Thursady morning,A daily travelers on New Jersey Transit and Amtrak trains were tangled for more than two hours,when power went out in a tunnel between New York City and Newark.

Passengers are being alerted to expect delays because of the outage in the tunnel just outside of New York's Penn Station.

Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast Line trains are subject to 45 to 60 minute delays due to single tracking into the city.

One NJ Transit passenger, Richard Ram, live-tweeted the entire episode, starting with a message that he was "trapped ... in the tunnel under the hudson."

Later, he posted about people getting "restless," and a passenger "having a panic attack."

"Not moving. No estimated time of rescue," he tweeted more than an hour into the ordeal.

Another NJ Transit passenger, Mitchell Grossbach, tweeted at about 10:30 a.m.: "Stuck for an hour, no air, toilets over-flowed, everyone missing work..nice."

Shortly before 11:30 a.m., Ram tweeted: "New york penn station, you never looked so good."

Amtrak says it is using diesel engine equipment to take the stuck trains from the tunnel into Penn Station.

The agency says it is working to restore power and cannot estimate when it will be back.

NJ Transit said it is cross-honoring tickets and passes at Newark Penn Station.
