Re: NJT conducting “Princeton Transitway Study” on Dinky ROW

$10 million locos are dual-purpose ALP45DP, yet needed only to repalce old diesels. They are a wasteful purchase. But obviously they have capital money to burn. This is not about saving money.

It is now 2020. If you slept from 2017, that's your problem.

Busway solves no problems except to turn a faster rail service into a bus service with unknown right of way capital cost conversions of its own. It is not a simple matter of rolling asphalt. They tried a US1 Busway proposal, then tried to incorporate the Dinky 10 years ago to puff up abysmal ridership projections. It was rejected.

If you believe the PTC excuse, you're nuts. It was engineer shortages. They are now crewing it with Raritan Line extra board on weekends.

There are plenty more local press documents that you have never seen.
