Why wouldn’t they want to increase the frequency of service and have M&E trains stop as well? People won’t use the station if they have to wait 20 minutes for the next train…I'd expect all trains that go to Lake Hopatcong to stop at Mount Arlington whether they be 1000 series Montclair-Boonton trains or 800 series Morris and Essex line trains.
I also expect that they will make the service at least hourly at Mount Arlington and Lake Hopatcong throughout the day, and at least half hourly in the rush direction during rush hours. All this is quite feasible given the track and yard infrastructure that is in place.
