(Bloomberg) -- Amtrak railway service across the Northeast Corridor faced delays and cancellations on Monday, causing chaos for passengers traveling ahead of the holidays.

Travelers should expect a “significant delay” in and out of New York Penn Station as the rail network seeks to recover from signal power issues, according to a statement on Amtrak’s website.

At least eight services have been canceled due to signal issues, while two between Boston and Washington were suspended because of equipment unavailability.

The disruptions come as freezing temperatures hit certain areas throughout the tristate region. Extreme weather can strain the power infrastructure that runs through the Northeast Corridor, the busiest rail segment in the US.
