I love hearing the employees talk about how service is going to be near damn impossible for the Superbowl in February. 10 car doubleheaders? That would be SWEET lol.

Towards the beginning of my layover at Secaucus, I was approached by authorities, but they were very professional and once they confirmed that I was no national security threat, we went our separate ways.

The real question is, did you go to the concert?

Good, just checking.

I wouldnt go near a T-swift concert even if i was paid to go. Psychological torture, plus those werent really T-swift trains, they didnt have any drawbar breakages. To be a T-swift train, you need to have a breakup of some sort, just like T-swift herself, in which every romantic breakup is the occasion for a new album. Haha.

The T-Swift concert was just a convenient occasion, since I was free this that Saturday, and most events which the Shuttle runs for are on Sundays, during which I am NOT free. Still debating whether I'm willing to brave the crazed football crowds for Superbowl Sunday next February. I might just park in the industrial area and film from the crossing instead. I'll probably run into a lot more fellow railfans that way anyway.

In reference to the first video, it does my heart good to see a big old train destined for a T-Swift Concert empty... but alas, it was early.

Look for this same type of program to run on Saturday, July 27th for Bon Jovi...

NJ Transit will offer service in both directions for the One Direction Concert Aug. 5. That seems odd.

Looks like it's a Metlife (Giants) Stadium show, not an Izod Center show.

Makes sense to me. Should be about as many people as there are for a football game, and they run trains for that.
