The Raritan Valley Line serves more than 23,000 daily commuters in a corridor where 1 million people live, about the same number of commuters as the North Jersey Coast Line, which has 11 trains in the morning and 13 trains in the afternoon with direct access to Manhattan. The NJCL also services Newark Airport.Why am I not fully convinced that the Raritan Line and the NJCL have the same number of commuters? |

The majority of RVL passengers do not go to NYPS. The are around 45%.The local politicians have done NOTHING for 10 tears about restoring service cuts made in 2001. One-seat rush hour ride won't work. If they do ram rod a train through, a more heavily patronized train off the NEC or NJCL would get booted out. RVL trains are limited to 7 cars. Few platforms are that long and they won't make the hills west of Raritan if some people gravitate toward the one or two such trains if made 8. ALP45DP can't make it to 80MPH in D-mode if over 8 cars. |

Interesting, I wonder if the same applies to commuters on other rail lines in the region without regular service into the city. For an example, do most Waterbury branch passengers not ride all the way into Grand Central? Do most Greenport Branch customers not ride all the way into Penn Station, etc... |

IDK anything about Connecticut.LIRR deliberately makes the AM Greenport Scoot connect with a Ronkonkoma train that gives people options other than NYPS. The Raritan Line has always been a downtown and Newark oriented service. The Raritan Valley Rail Coalition is Westfield and Somerville based politically connected real estate group masquerading as rail advocates. They know nothing at all of the issues involved. They want property values to rise and wooden TOD's to go up, like the one that was set on fire, 7 alarmer, the other day in Bound Brook. |

I would not be surprised if Waterbury Branch-GCT commuters are basically nonexistent.Yeah, looking at the schedule it seems to make much more sense to drive to a station on the New Haven Line where you have plenty of choices, not just one that arrives GCT at 8:07 and the other at 9:13. It's even worse in the evening: leave GCT at 4:42 or 6:53. |

You are correct. But that's basically due to the terrible service, not because it wouldn't be useful. The line is run like it's 1950 there.I used to live along the Montauk branch considerably east of Ronkonkoma, and would drive to Ronkonkoma (even instead of using the Montauk branch) just because the service was good. I would have instead not driven West to to konkoma, and just up to the mainline, if they had a usable service East of Ronkonkoma. Now, I actually live along the Ronkonkoma branch East of Ronkonkoma, a tually walking distance to it no less, and still drive to ronkonkoma. Ronkonkoma isn't the sea of cars and huge ridership because it's such a swi going busy place, but instead because it's the artificial end of commuter service, and good service. People drive from North, Northeast, East, Southeast, and South of Ronkonkoma, just because that's where the good service is and ends. |

Theres no demand for Waterbury-GCT direct train service. It was tried several years ago & was a miserable flop. They ran 4 trains M/F with one engine & 4 shoreliner coaches. Most trips needed only 2 open coaches. The service lasted only one timetable cycle. |

There just isn't that much demand for service from those areas to GCT. The Waterbury branch joins the New Haven Line north of Bridgeport. Bridgeport to GCT on a rush-hour express is about 90 minutes and the Waterbury stations are between 15 and 25 miles beyond Bridgeport.There is demand from those areas to Bridgeport and other stations down the line to Stamford and even Greenwich. The New Haven Line is very different from what you'll encounter on the LIRR or NJT. |

I can't imagine too many jobs in Mineola or Hauppauge pay the money that's required to purchase and maintain a multi-million dollar Hamptons mansion. |

Well there it is. If people really drive all the way from Massachusetts to commute on the Harlem line and there are popular commuter buses that carry people into the city all the way from Pennsylvania, then there has to be demand for commuter service into the city from the largely working class Naugatuck Valley.Jobs are scarce as they are in the Naugatuck Valley, so why make it difficult for its residents to get to where the jobs actually are? |

No. I live here and I know the market and area far better than you.Bus competition (113, 144) is poor and slow. It is nothing like Bergen County. The Gladstone Branch is slower and has only 2 direct trains. The NEC is not easy to get to given what I-287, US-206, the GSP, and Easton Avenue are like. Furthermore, daily parking at New Brunswick is $22. |

Yes, but it can take them an hour from Secaucus to PABT if traffic is bad or the XBL is in not in effect. The train takes 10 minutes for the distance. If they had the option of getting off the bus and grabbing a train rather than sitting in traffic, they would do it. Trip time trumps one-seat ride. |

The North fork, while not the Hamptons, has become much more affluent in last decades. That with huge tourism, wineries, etc, it's amazing the train line is still run like 1953. |

NJT's bus route 113 runs parallel to the RVL and goes directly to the PABT. They cut the service over the years, and when they created the 113 by merging the old 143 and 222, they cut the service clean in half. |
