mfs NJT459 Posted June 3, 2015 Share #1 Posted June 3, 2015 Pending voter approval, this casino (operated by Hard Rock) could open sometime next year and could be the top grossing revenue casino/entertainment complex in the country Could this hurt Atlantic City even more? Would NJ Transit or another bus company (Academy or Coach USA) operate PABT to Meadowlands Casino shuttles? http://www.nj.com/bergen/index.ssf/2015/06/hard_rock_chairman_says_meadowlands_casino_could_o.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
553 Bridgeton Posted June 4, 2015 Share #2 Posted June 4, 2015 Atlantic City is fine. If that was the case njt would havecut service into ac. Its fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted June 4, 2015 Share #3 Posted June 4, 2015 Atlantic City is more of a tourist trap as well, so it would attract a lot more people from all over. I'm not so sure that this casino would cause more of an impact than Resorts World out here in Queens. Resorts World did put a dent into business out in Atlantic City. Guess we'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
46Dover Posted June 6, 2015 Share #4 Posted June 6, 2015 You already have the 703 serving the Meadowlands. It could only boost service for the 163/64. You have the Meadowlands Rail line from Hoboken. And Coach USA's 351 Meadowlands Express (Community/Suburban) from Port Authority as well I forgot the line that runs from Secaucus Junction to the Meadowlands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, Transit may boost service on the under-utilized 160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

go25 Posted June 7, 2015 Share #8 Posted June 7, 2015 I think the 378 What about the 378 bud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
46Dover Posted June 7, 2015 Share #9 Posted June 7, 2015 What about the 378 bud? Now that you mention it, I don't think that's the Shuttle from Meadowlands to Secaucus Junction. the 378 is the supplement to the 78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

traingoat Posted June 8, 2015 Share #11 Posted June 8, 2015 They could care less about AC. This is about making tax money or the lack of it. If the money is gambled in Queens or Connecticut or Pocono resorts then it isn't doing New Jersey any good. Who runs NJTransit and if this means money for the state then NJTransit will have multiple buslines stopping at the front door including the railroad.

161 New York Posted June 8, 2015 Share #12 Posted June 8, 2015 Now that you mention it, I don't think that's the Shuttle from Meadowlands to Secaucus Junction. the 378 is the supplement to the 78 They used to have the 772 going from Hackensack to Secaucus Junction via Meadowlands. Unfortunately NJT truncated the route to its present route Hackensack/Paramus CC to the Meadowlands back in 2010-2011. It is a shame since there is no connection other than the 190 between Lower Bergen County and Secaucus. On a related note, I wonder how they are going to address the bus situation when(ever) the Xanadu-thing opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion VII 4 Life Posted June 8, 2015 Share #13 Posted June 8, 2015 On a related note, I wonder how they are going to address the bus situation when(ever) the Xanadu-thing opens. I believe the plan is daily train service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traingoat Posted June 10, 2015 Share #14 Posted June 10, 2015 I believe the plan is daily train service. Makes complete sense as they have a station right there which is used for specials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
