Well I finally have finished another one of New Jersey major rail stations, Newark-Penn Station. It’s a quite vertical oriented station and I made different sections of pages for its four levels. Starting from the top: Upper Level Platform H–(21 Photos) — used by PATH for discharging passengers Main Elevated Tracks Level–(49 Photos) — six […]
The four days this week the MTA has brought FasTracks to my little branch of the A train between 207th Street and 168th Street. The service advisory was ripped with confusion. It says (FASTRACK_mapA) to either take the 1 train or the M4 bus from 168th Street to 190th Street along Fort Washington Avenue (the […]
Rebuilding and making the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail standards up to my modern standards is something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time. I finally got started from its southern end including its two year old southernmost station that hadn’t opened yet when I wrote the original section: 8th Street–(50 Photos) — although I […]
This morning I have an early morning appointment that was done before 9am. Although rain is in the forecast I decide I might as well try my next transit adventure. The goal is getting some of the rare diesel trains running on the Gladstone Branch that normally uses Arrow IIIs but are running diesels (except […]

Newport–(rebuilt with 37 new photos) Christopher Street–(13 Photos) 9th […]
This afternoon I deceided it was time to finally leave the neighborhood and go on a little transit adventure down the Jersey side of the Hudson River waterfront. The main excuse for the trip was to finally get more photos and more importantly my descriptions of the Pavonia-Newport (excuse me just Newport) and Hoboken PATH […]
One tiny transit system in New York City, I’ve neglected for far too long is PATH, the Port Authority Trans Hudson. It’s one of the oldest transit lines in operation based around two sets of 100 year old tubes beneath the Hudson River. What’s more amazing, except for station rebuildings, and the realignment of trains […]
Well, Yes I have FrontRunner South that I’m working on from my last week trip to Utah but at the moment I’m trying to get back to my routes and finally get some of New York’s larger transit hubs onto my website and make the New York Flagship section much more complete. In this Update […]
The trip home on a JetBlue red eye 3 buses, TRAX, and the A train, began after a nice final day of skiing Alta. I headed back to our lodge, the Peruvian, and had a quick shower before a night of overnight travel. The trip home began with me and my Dad having a icy […]
