How did westbound EL commuter trains used to access Suffern yard before the current track alignment? I know now (since there are only 2 tracks) they have a crossover just west of Suffern station to the Rockland running track to access the yard, but I don't believe there were crossovers for all 4 tracks back in the 70's and 80's. I believe the 4 tracks went down to 2 tracks right by the east end of the yard, but I can't figure out how the train would get into the yard from Hoboken. Anyone know?
I think it may be possible that NJ Transit might not be the perfect, infallible organization that most people assume it is.
