Metro North West of Hudson Service

Question about its history:

When NJ Transit Rail took over from Conrail on 1/1/1983, did this service become Metro North's responsibility the same day? Or was there a time after 1983 before it officially became Metro North W of Hudson? Of course I understand that NJ Transit has always provided the crews and equipment with NY State paying a proportionate share.

it was already Metro north's responsibility before 1/1/1983.
Conrail was only contract operator for MTA sponsored services. the equipment at the time several RDC's and one U34ch plus car set were already owned by MTA.
