That halted all railroad tenants using the corridor, which includes Tri-Rail, Amtrak and CSX freight trains.

According to the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority, Tri-Rail experienced major delays Tuesday and used bus services to complete its schedule for the remainder of the day after the system went down.

“A root analysis will be performed to further understand the cause of this rare occurrence and avoid a repeated episode,” a news release from the SFRTA stated.
