Main and Bergen County Line Inbound Midday Service is going to have some changes come May 17th.
Between 9:00am and 9:10pm 24 out of the 28 trains will see service changes. Some are as small as 1 minute other are as large as 25 minutes.

Are these expected to be temporary to accommodate the track work or are they going to become permanent? BTW, any hope that after the track work they will trim a minute or two from the running times end to end? Seems like it is taking longer than it used to 2 years ago and certain trains are always two-three minutes behind their published schedules at certain stops (I know they do not count as delayed unless they are late more than 5:59 minutes at the final destination, but missing certain unscheduled connections in Secaucus by a minute is certainly annoying.)

The Bergen County Line Trains Inbound will now leave Boro Hall at :28 (give or take) instead of :54. The 10:02am is scrapped. Main Line is all switched around as well. All Midday Outbound Service will continue onto Suffern with 1 or 2 exemptions. (vs. previously terminating at Ridgewood)
Pascack no changes more than 2-3 minute changes.
Montclair Boonton no changes more than 2 minutes.
That's all I checked. Stuff that could affect me lol.
Didn't check the Newark Division. But I did check for the Direct NYP-BH trains and nothing came up.

Very welcome to the outer end of the Main Line, but unlike 2007, I believe the trains will be local down the line
I think it may be possible that NJ Transit might not be the perfect, infallible organization that most people assume it is.

Yes it appears that way. I have a feeling train 62 (coming from PJ) at times will delay 1170 with only an 8 minute in departure times from Suffern. What should be done is run 62 express from Suffern to Ridgewood and let 1170 pickup the local passengers.
1168 appears to skip Mahwah and Allendale.
Princeton junction is always 2-4 early or 3-7 mins late. During rush its not that big a deal

Great for the 200 or so people that use it a day. LOL.
Although I see this as a plus (if you build it they will come).
And I'm sure it will gain more Ridership than the RVL which is averaging horrific numbers.
Still neglecting us up North though

Anyway, puns aside, it is about time this happened. It is a great example and model of the versatility of the ALP 45-DPs.
Is this simply extending existing electric trains to Bay Head, or is this extending existing shuttles to NYP? The difference between the two is equipment and capacity. Will we see 8 car multilevel trains in Bay Head?
I can't wait to see the full timetable!
Lines Frequented: SEPTA Trenton Line, West Trenton Line, Warminster Line; NJT Northeast Corridor Amtrak Northeast Corridor (PHL-NYP).
There won't be any "new" rush hour trains into NYP. No capacity. They'll extend the existing trains to Bay Head... but aren't ML's banned from down there?
I think it may be possible that NJ Transit might not be the perfect, infallible organization that most people assume it is.
They are extending the shuttles from Bay Head into the city. The Hoboken trains will terminate at Long Branch. Will be interesting to see If they use electric to Long Branch from Hoboken. Imagine using arrows LOL
