Posted by 5301 Fishbowl on Sat Jan 12 04:37:45 2008, in response to Re: How the LIRR and Nassau PD Conspire Against Commuters, posted by trainsarefun on Thu Jan 10 22:11:22 2008. >>people are allergic to changing trains for some reason, even if it would get them where they were going faster.<<A couple of years back NJT ran train 2382 on weekend mornings from Bay Head to Hoboken. And a 2383 back in the late afternoon. Each way, it was a beautiful peaceful train, only 2 cars needed, probably could get away with only one. I got on 2382 in Matawan at 8:11 am, it made Woodbridge, Newark Penn, and Hoboken. 2383 did the same in reverse, leaving Hoboken at 4:40 pm. Meanwhile, the Long Branch to New York Penn and back around the same times were zoos: 5 cars in the A.M. and between 6 and 8 cars on the return. And this was during the non-summer periods! The point I am trying to make is that I would rather travel between Matawan & New York City with a connection at Hoboken to/from PATH and ride a beautiful peaceful train than take a one seat "hell" ride. Just my opinion, of course! :-) |
