You are correct with that. Though I will admit that they are helpful for the occasional NJT train on a track shared with the LIRR. And it also helps identify trains stopping at Secaucus (where a transfer to trains to the Meadowlands can be made). Though I will admit that the graphics on the display look a bit cheesy. Also a bit of a pain are the way that the station list and connections are displayed. They're generally inconsistent with the LIRR style (as they ought to be). It doesn't list the terminal station with the others (Since when do Trenton trains terminate at Hamilton, NJ?), they don't show the stops the connecting trains make, and the train's destination in ARIAL? Tsk tsk tsk!

Here's what I think it should look like.


SECAUCUS
PRINCETON JCT.
NEWARK PENN STA.
HAMILTON, NJ
NEWARK AIRPORT
TRENTON
ELIZABETH
 
RAHWAY
 
METROPARK
 
METUCHEN
 
EDISON
 
NEW BRUNSWICK
 
JERSEY AVENUE
 
CHANGE AT SECAUCUS FOR RUTHERFORD - GARFIELD - PLAUDERVILLE - BROADWAY (FAIR LAWN) - RADBURN - GLEN ROCK-BORO HALL - RIDGEWOOD - HO-HO-KUS - WALDWICK - CHANGE AT NEWARK PENN STA. FOR UNION - ROSELLE PARK - CRANFORD - GARWOOD - WESTFIELD - FANWOOD - NETHERWOOD - PLAINFIELD - DUNELLEN - BOUND BROOK - BRIDGEWATER - SOMERVILLE - RARITAN - CHANGE AT PRINCETON JCT. FOR PRINCETON - CHANGE AT TRENTON FOR LEVITTOWN-TULLYTOWN - BRISTOL - CROYDON - CORNWELLS HEIGHTS - TORRESDALE - HOLMESBURG JCT. - TACONY - BRIDESBURG - NORTH PHILADELPHIA - PHILA. 30TH ST. - SUBURBAN STA. - MARKET EAST - TEMPLE UNIVERSITY
