I see that the NYSW has an office in Rochelle Park and obviously they run through Bergen, Passaic, and Sussex Counties, but where do the train crews come from? Basically what I'm asking is do all of the crews originate from somewhere in Upstate New York, or are some based in North Jersey?

NJ local crews are based at Ridgefield park, NJ.

SU100/99 crews are called out of Binghamton, NY.

CL1-Cortland, NY local are called at Cortland.

UT-1 Utica, NY are called at Utica.

It is a whole different story on where the guys live.

Lot's of bouncing around due to seniority and job changes.
