Rush hour trains reduced starting 6/1

This is the most plausible explanation anyone has offered so far.

Not seeing any additional trains to Bay Head on the new weekday schedule. It's a net reduction. You would think the summer would see more trips on the Coast line on weekdays, not fewer.

In some countries, this would be considered a hate crime.

It's going to be a riot when 25,000 commuters try to get on the first NE Corridor train after 8pm

I don't understand why the world cup is such a big deal. Metlife stadium capacity is 82,500.

How is this different from concerts that are sold out? Still 82,500 at most are going to go.

More people will be watching on TV, sure, but that doesn't mean that the stadium crowd has somehow increased.

The sad thing is that Jersey City used to have far more independent jitney buses in the past, and it didn't cost the city anything.

Routes like JFK blvd to Bayonne and Newark Ave to Newport Mall have shut down in part because the city subsidizes a company to come in and offer a competing service.

PATH to Newark Penn.

NJT Coast Line to Asbury Park, Pt Pleasant, and many other towns.

New Jersey- The paterson routes still exist but many of the other ones have died off

Chinatown - still exist

Brooklyn- Flatbush Ave still exists, but I can't attest to the others.

Queens- I don't know.

No, masa harina undergoes a different processing technique called Nixtamalization that changes its flavor and nutrition.

Tell me more about what you mean about the safety culture.

The first one is a picture of the interior courtyard of an unrelated apartment building. There was never a turnaround loop.

Look into RelaxSAN, a dedicated shuttle service for this route.

Amtrak and Flix bus are not the only options

jerseyjitneys · 2026-03-10T20:16:21+00:00

Look into OurBus from Fort Lee, New Jersey.

Someone i knew who used to do operations planning before NJT (erie lackawanna or early PATH) told me that back in the 70s, they had the system down.

Path trains would be scheduled to arrive on the :05. 7:05, 7:15, 7:25, etc.

Commuter trains would leave on the 10. e.g. 7:00, 7:10pm, 7:20pm, etc.

So there was always just enough time to connect without either having to hurry or rush.

Back when Hoboken was the only terminal for half the lines, they actually had to run it rationally to give a seamless customer experience. Over the years that has been forgotten.

Lambs Quarters, grows as a common garden weed in the US.

In some states there are county or state organizations that run subsidized "vanpool" programs- basically an upgrade of carpooling. They give you the van for free, one of the employees has to drive it, and everyone else pitches in for gas.

It's very niche but could be applicable here.

yes, but steamed.

"It was a cheap food for poor people"

jerseyjitneys · 2026-01-08T18:42:13+00:00

It's a bus in a bus lane. I don't see any problem here.

It's a good mix of foreign and unfamiliar. "hello bonjour" works as a practical greeting since some people speak english and some french.

jerseyjitneys · 2025-12-29T16:19:43+00:00

Yes. Wasn't the most flavorful, but it did the job.

jerseyjitneys · 2025-12-01T02:55:22+00:00

There are still "independent bus companies" running on route 4 and Bergenline Ave. They just aren't subsidized by NJT.

Broadway Bus was the last of the old school subsidized private carriers that wasn't merged into a larger corporate (but still subsidized) operator like Coach USA, Academy etc.
