New York-bound trains throughout the morning have been delayed by between 10 and 20 minutes because of two trains that were canceled because of mechanical problems, a Metro-North spokesman said.

Several commuters tweeted to Hearst Connecticut Media Group that their trains were delayed — one by as many as 25 minutes — and that trains were particularly crowded because of the backup.

Salvatore Arena, a spokesman for Metro-North, said the delays were caused by two trains — one in Stamford and one in New Rochelle — being canceled because of mechanical problems.

Arena said he expected trains to be on or close to on schedule by about 9 a.m.

UPDATE, 8:15 p.m.: Metro-North says there may be residual delays eastbound and westbound because of earlier issues due to wire damage.

7:30 p.m.: Metro-North says there are delays eastbound and westbound on the New Haven Line because of single tracking in the area of Rye, N.Y. and Greenwich caused by wire damage.

3:29 p.m.: MTA spokeswoman Marjorie Anders says power problems are affecting the signal system on Metro-North from the Bronx to New Haven. Service has been reduced from half hourly to hourly.

In addition, service is temporarily suspended on the Danbury and Waterbury branch lines because the single-track lines are blocked by fallen trees.
