On Tuesday, May 12, at approximately 9:10 p.m., an unknown projectile struck the engineer's window of SEPTA Trenton Line train #769. The engineer did not report any injuries. The train was initially held near the North Philadelphia Station based on damage to the train window and later based on the suspension of the line due to the Amtrak derailment. The 80 SEPTA passengers were rescued and walked off train #769 and transferred to buses. The incident is currently under investigation.
