Six Goes...Interstate?

[RokuSix]

I bid a fond hello to you all from my hole.

 

But I had to crawl out of my hole on Saturday to go to New Jersey. Not out of my own volition, but for educational purposes. What a disaster! I thought I knew PATH, but apparently, I was horribly, horribly misguided and I'm afraid that yes, I, a transit fan, nearly got lost.

 

But I did ride one of their new cars... what are they, PA-5s? Correct me if I'm wrong!

 

But here's the creme-de-la-creme... I rode light rail for my first time ever! It was interesting... a bit slow... but interesting. Very clean, and I thought the pre-boarding system was very reminiscent of Select Bus Service.

 

Here's a picture!

 

 

Edited: Picture was far too tiny!

The only section of the HBLR that is slow is the Jersey City part due to some at grade and Construction projects. nice pictures.

Ride past Liberty State Park going to Bayonne, and ride north of Hoboken on the Tonnelle Avenue line, that light rail train will move something serious.

I'll keep that in mind, guys! Thank you for your compliments.

Good job!

[SirJokaPlaya]

Yeah, those Lightrail cars can haul butt when they want to. I seen a few peg 45 mph. When coming from 48th and Bergenline Ave to Newport Mall, it takes a lot quicker than taking the 86 bus.

They can do 50-55 out in the open as pablo said, but usually they do about 45 for passenger comfort.

 

I ride this system alll the timeee glad you liked it! :tup::cool: PATH is also confusing if you dont look at the map surprisingly enough even with its 13 stations.

The Bayonne Flyer is doing 55 all the way to Bayonne once it gets the track is clear past the yard.

It is priceless to watch the people on the highway look out of their vehicle at a light or stuck in traffic with a "wtf... light rail goes fast?" look on their face!!! :cool:

 

It's all most as funny as the people who are not used to the acela zipping past stations in NJ, or zipping past us all ready seated in a (NJT) train "oh em gee what was that wow". :cool:
