If you are going to do that, then the running time becomes uncompetitive with the buses. TBL schedules Clinton - PABT to be 75 minutes, non-stop. There is no way a train can make it that fast. Ditto for Branchburg - PABT on the Doylestown service.Even NJT's own 117 or 4 frequencies is faster than the train, and it serves communities 2 or 3 miles north of the RVL along US22. The patrons park for free at strip malls. They don't want to take the train. Most of the stations are side platforms, with one or both sitting on the former track. It would be very difficult to ram a 3rd track through anymore. |
