Service was suspended and several trains are delayed on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor after a person was struck, the transit agency said Wednesday.

Just after 12 p.m., Amtrak posted on X that there was a temporary hold on all Northeast Corridor service between Philadelphia and Trenton.

By 12:50 p.m., service was resuming but with lingering delays "due to heavy rail congestion in the area," Amtrak said on X.

A SEPTA spokesperson said someone was struck and killed near Cornwells Heights station. The tracks are shared by Amtrak and SEPTA.
