You'll transfer to a subway at one place or another. 3) Far more people ride buses to PABT than NJT trains to NYPS. Gateway tunnels solve part of it, not nearly all of it. 4) Most communities in NJ are served by buses, not trains. 5) #7 has double the capacity of Gateway, which is an Amtrak intercity rail project with an accommodation for commuter rail. 6) Buses don't increase property values. When the beloved one seat ride takes a half hour or hour more than a train, it is no longer important, unless it is a tour bus from Quebec with a bunch of old ladies. |
