I didn't realize that ACES route goes from NYC to AC via Philly. Seems so roundabout and time consuming! Is there really no trackage along the coast that trains could utilize?

There is an abandoned line that runs from Hammonton to Red Bank.... It will be restored from Red Bank - Lakehurst as part of the MOM network....there are some talks of restoring service to South Jersey.

Nexis4Jersey,

Do you know about any proposals or plans for another PATH station in Hudson County?

I would love to see one in Weehawken or another in Hoboken/Jersey City.

Well , will just have to see how the MOM network and Glassboro lines go , if they get there combined 180,000 daily riders more extensions will come to Central and South Jersey if they don't it will take longer. But I have a feelin the Glassboro line will do fine do to the fact that the Riverline has done greatly and is expected to explode when the Pennsuaken Transit Center is completed...

you may have underestimated the lines. I think they will explode and reveal something about the SJ area. I think the MOM should go all the way to vineland then have cape may line go via the ROW along rte 30 in camden.

Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob Squarepants.

Nexis: Are there any more studies on the HBLR extension to Staten Island? The most recent study I know of is the Phase II study.

They estimate that, if there aren't any roadblocks, construction alone will take 7 years to get to Bloomfield, and maybe 10 years to get to Pleasant Plains, but how long would you think it would take to start construction? Another 10 years or so?
