    Does anyone know why Academy continues to do route learning runs that shadow NJT route 88, saw one of their Orion VII OG shadowing the 88 earlier this morning, and then months past, I seen their nova buses and their new flyer D40LFs shadowing the 88 as well. So can anyone explain why the Academy continues to do route learning runs on the 88? A route they have it ran since June 2021. 

     

    PS: I’ll post a picture of the OG in the photo thing

    Perhaps some foreshadowing, maybe the contract is going back to Academy after all

    NJT can't screw this up can they??

    You would think they have  learned their lesson from the disaster of how they left 100s of fans stranded at the Meadowlands Station during that Super Bowl. It should be an "All hands on deck" with both shuttle bus and extra trains. Pay your workers overtime if need be. This time around, the whole word will be watching 

    Only one way to find out...

    I disagree. The Meadowlands Line needs high capacity MUs to be successful in general. There are enough events there in general to make them viable.

    That would require electrification on parts of the Main, Bergen, and Pascack Valley lines, which NJT does not want to do, plain and simple. They are facing a massive fiscal crisis, and they think that a fare hike will magically solve that issue, which is extremely laughable. For the World Cup, you're getting the service that they offer for football season, so take that as you will.

    Every trip doesnt stop there....And There are some key businesses back there that will make it hard to catch the buses in either direction and on wkends when the bridge is out they uses river term for service... So me personally i would continue to have the 1 serve that area the way it does...Now would i would do is eilimanate the 1 to river term from nwk and send it to jc...

    Majority of weekend service does. And the times it goes there, it's a ghost town.

     

    I do agree with getting rid of the buses terminating at River Terminal and sending them to Jersey City.

    Random thought; NJT has way to many service patterns and variations for routes which is why the bus system is so confusing to riders.

    I mean, the 1 alone has like what, 10 different service patterns?

    The 13, 34, come to mind. I, for one, would like the 1 to have less service to River Terminal. Not every trip that goes to/from Jersey City NEEDS to stop there, especially on weekends.

    Nj transit limited what you can see with the most recent update due to safety concerns brought up by drivers on the Hilton Lines. Foamers, the way they act out went to far and the driver got wiff of the tracking site and brought it to the unions attention. It became a problem when the XE40 went there. 
     

    All it takes is one to ruin it all. What you see on the tracking site is the end result. Hopefully it came come back fully. 

    Good job, foamers...
