NJT serves one stop in NY (Suffern) without NYS subsidy, so one NH station without NHDOT subsidy might be ok.
Suffern, NY not being subsidized by any NYS entity? **NO**.
Two examples here - 1: MNCR provides a percentage of Comet Five cars on New Jersey Transit's
Hoboken Division along with locomotives such as F40PH's which read "WEST OF HUDSON"...
2-On a recent visit to Suffern I noticed that an MTA Police patrol had stopped there with one
officer checking the parking lots and platform...
Suffern is a interesting example being that MNCR once had done some renovation work and
had placed as example Port Jervis Line-type station signs - which were all replaced by NJT...
The only remaining MNCR remnant is the green canopy over the Hoboken-bound platform...
Another reason for NJT control could be the passenger yard just north of Suffern Station...
A previous post mentioned Delaware's subsidy to SEPTA to provide service to the four DE
stations (Claymont, Wilmington, Churchman's Crossing and Newark) on the Wilmington/
Newark Line - which is provided by the Delaware Transit Corporation (part of DelDot)...
This subsidy included the purchase of four ROTEM Silverliner Five MU cars as example...
An equivalent example would be the purchase of some cars and locomotives by NH to
provide service to New Hampshire stations along with line and station subsidies...
If a plan could be worked out between NHDOT and MBTA Commuter Rail...
