PRR still ended in Jersey City (Pennsylvania Station and the Hudson River tunnels are 15 years away)

NYP opened 1910, not 1908, FTR.

The Third Avenue Railway is cable powered

True, but wasn't long for the world, in spite of the cable system having been completed by 1893 after a rapid conversion from horse power that started seven years earlier (it was an innovative double-cable system as well, with each cable independently powered). The 10th Avenue line was electrified in 1895, and the entire system by 1899.
