Can someone please tell me if NJ Transit has a train from or near Fair Lawn to Penn Station - NYC? I can't make heads or tails on their web site. It keeps giving me a bus schedule and I don't want the bus. I can drive to a nearby town but don't know which to go to. Thx!

No. The train from Fair Lawn goes to Hoboken, so to get to Penn you transfer at Sensuous. Not sure what site you're on, but the NJ Transit website clearly has choices to see train information. You want the Bergen County/Main line schedule.

Sorry but not that clear or I wouldn't have asked. I'm on http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/rail/R0020.pdf and see on the graphic, Fair Lawn to Secaucus. Then I went to New Jersey Transit and Fair Lawn is not an option as departure. If someone can post a link to the schedule I'm not seeing would help.

I think the two train stations in fair lawn are Radburn and Broadway on the bergen county line. If you go to train schedules and select the rail map, the illustration of the bergen county line identifies them as Broadway-fair lawn and Radburn-fair lawn

That's a hilarious name for a train station. Every time I make the transfer there I'll remember that.

ROFL I got auto-corrected and didn't catch it!!! Must've been referring to that hot statue of Lautenberg.

Try using the "service near a location" function at: www.njtransit.com

Direct link: New Jersey Transit

Just put in your home address & it will tell you what trains and/or buses are nearby.

You've got it. The stations in Fair Lawn are Broadway (Route 4) and Radburn, which is off of Fair Lawn Avenue.

OP, thought you might be on a different site from the NJ Transit site at first. Yes, you pulled up the right schedule.

The system map posted by arrieros81 shows the town name in small letters under the train station name.

Used that line for a couple decades. The trains run frequently and they are pretty reliable.
