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 […]

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 […]
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 […]

It has three different sections for the three different Commuter, Heavy, and Light Rail modes that all stop at the station: 1907 Lackawanna Terminal–(rebuilt with 94 new photos!) — NJT Commuter rail &mash; […]

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 […]

I call the priority Select number on my (no […]
This is the fourt post (Post 1|Post 2|Post 3) about four trips over four days on a POH-YNY-NYP-NWK-PHL points run muli-city ticket I bought to ride VIA Cars on the Adirondack after Thanksgiving 2012 and to also get enough points for S+ status. After PATH took so long yesterday to get me home from Newark, […]
