— -- On any day, Grand Central Terminal and Penn Station in New York City are bustling with people boarding commuter trains. But the city that never sleeps was a ghost town overnight as a massive snowstorm pummeled the Northeast.

The MTA closed both stations and all other city-wide transportation on Monday night as part of an unprecedented travel ban.
