Tunnel fire between Philly and NYC?
We have a DS3 outage on A MPLS circuit, and I'm hearing there was a
railway fire affecting 600 feet of fiber between NYC and Philly.

Anyone else here anything about this?

Thanks,

Jason

Local news in Philly isn't reporting anything of the kind. I have a number of circuits terminating in the philly area and all are up and running. If there is a fire, let's hope its not like that tunnel fire they had around DC 5 or 6 years ago.

We had an XO T1 in Philly down for a few hours Saturday due to a "fiber
cut", but we know how everyone uses that general term. Circuit was back up
at some point yesterday.

Yes - apparently this was affecting XO as well. Mine dropped Friday at
8:45PM and restored almost 24 hours later.

If this was indeed a railway fire (I can't find any news supporting that),
I thought we all learned a lesson in 01 after the Howard tunnel fire.
