WASHINGTON - Amtrak is working to restore train service in parts of the Northeast after the region was walloped by Superstorm Sandy.

But the Ethan Allen Express to and from Rutland, Vt., will not be running on Thursday because of track damage south of Albany, N.Y.

The Vermonter service from St. Albans to Washington, D.C., also is cancelled on Thursday.

Amtrak says it plans to restore some service on Friday to and from New York City.

Service to Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey has been restored, but Northeast Regional service between Newark and New Haven, Conn., and Acela Express service for the length of the Northeast Corridor are cancelled for Thursday.
