NEW YORK (AP) — Amtrak service in parts of the Northeast was disrupted or delayed Tuesday after a fire broke out near a train route in New York City. Amtrak said initial reports indicated a brush fire stemming from a transformer at an Amtrak substation ...

A brush fire apparently connected to an Amtrak substation in the Bronx caused a power outage and a disruption that was expected to last through the day.

A fire that broke out near train tracks in the Bronx has led to all Amtrak service between NY Penn Station and New Haven getting suspended for the rest of Tuesday, according to the transit agency.

Fire crews on both coasts of the U.S. are battling wildfires, including one in New York and New Jersey that killed a parks employee.

Dangerous wildfires were burning Monday on the East and West coasts, with firefighters in New York and New Jersey working to contain a deadly blaze spurred by an ongoing, historic drought – while strong winds in Southern California could fan a destructive fire in Ventura County.

From New Jersey to California, wildfires are continuing to rage on both coasts and despite current weather conditions offering some relief, the situation is far from over. NBC News’ George Solis and Michelle Grossman report on the latest efforts by firefighters to stop the wildfires.
