The Morris & Essex Lines Montclair Branch

Thought I would give this post a slightly confusing title for a decent reason. These 4 stations are the only stations still in operation (well Bay Street replaced the original Montclair Terminal in 1981 that still exists but your webmaster didn’t know about on his last trip there and needs to return) on the Montclair […]

The Subway Stations at 34th Street-Penn Station

Don’t get to excited about this update (Well I do have plenty of photos). As I continue to dither about the best way to write Penn Station itself I managed to write the two subway stations that serve the surrounding area and all of the commuters beneath 7th Avenue and 8th Avenue. The exits are […]

34th Street-Herald Square Complex with the 33rd Street PATH station! PATH is complete!

As I was finishing PATH I started writing the 33rd Street PATH station. 34th Street-Herald Square is a station I’ve been meaning to finish for a while. The issue with finishing it is it’s so complicated. I’ve finally perfected my technique for getting station descriptions that are to complicated to simply remember (or in pictures) […]

Upload: NJT Raritan Valley Line

The next 3 stations on the Raritan Valley Line from Plainfield, I visited in January. Each Station is quite different: Dunellen–(60 Photos) — Modern, rebuilt in 1950s and 1960s with ugly station houses Bound Brook–(69 Photos) — Nice old 1912 station house along the Conrail Lehigh Line with plenty of long-distance freight trains that pass the […]

A Quick Trip to Secaucus via Anderson St to see the ALP-45DPs into Penn Station on their first weekend of regularly scheduled operations

Living at the GW Bridge to easiest way […]

Single-Tracking PATH in Newark to ride the NJT Gladstone Branch powered ALP-45DPs including first day of regularly scheduled dual-mode Midtown Direct trains because of weekend track work

I normally don’t bother doing weekend trips, service is less frequent and waiting rooms are closed. The one exception is when weekend service differs from weekday service. I had never ridden anywhere on the Gladstone Branch before, had a friend who could only do the weekend trip and with the current post-Sandy timetables on the […]

Starting down the Raritan Valley Line Union Station to Plainfield

With Newark Penn Station finished what better way to expand the system then uploading the first 8 stops on the Raritan Valley Line that I visited on two separate trips nearly a year apart. I find it one of the most interesting lines in the system, full of old station houses and two tracks remaining […]
