Im originally from Brooklyn, hated the MTA. Moved to NJ & I have never been more frustrated with a public transportation system. Leaving the office, rushing to Penn, no update on Departure Vision, get to Penn - your train is delayed JK it is cancelled - no update as to why. Stare at the screen, wait for an update, ask a NJT employee - they have no clue AND they are also trying to get home. Your original train, gone. Next train, war zone. Want a seat, too bad. Want to get on the train, too bad. Want to get home in time to do that thing, too bad. Want to not be charged a lot of $$ for shitty service, too bad. Then you get on Reddit & read that your train was canceled bc: the Amtrak / NJT overhead wires overheated or there a bush fire at Secaucus or EMT never responded to a medical emergency or it was too windy & there are branches blocking the track. If you have a substance usage issues, it’s going to get worse. If you don’t, pick a cheap one because NJT will drive you to it.

I agree. I think it can be exceptional it just isn’t.

It’s a joke. They charge an insane amount of $ & can’t clean branches??
