How many Comet III coaches does NJT have in storage and what is the distribution of cab cars and trailer cars?

With the increase in service, will additional train sets be laying over in Springfield overnight? As I understand it currently you have one full length regional and maybe one or two shuttle sets aside from spare equipment that tie up over night at Springfield Station. Will this change with the incre...

Yes, that's the way it's done currently and then they block the crossing again at the end of the day but they have to wait to unblock the crossing until everyone is off the train. I can't remember if they also block the golf course crossings as well. When the Notch train runs with more than 7 cars ...

P/V Babbling Brook was spotted tied down by itself outside the Harrison PATH Car Maintenance Facility in the small NJ Transit Yard (Not sure on the name). It seems to move pretty quickly, spotted it at Morrison & Erie's' shops on Monday

It would be nice to find out what is happening with all of the number boards, horns, bells and other novelty items. Seems every screamer that was put in Billerica and last I saw 1004 at BET with no number boards on the unit. It would be easy to assume they have been stolen. However I am not one to a...

Are the monthly CR CharlieCards only available through the mail? Also, thanks to the wonderful Transit Benefit program at work, in order to pay for a monthly pass I have to use my Transit Benefit card for part of the cost and pay for the rest on my credit/debit card. That being said, is the CharlieC...
