first off let me just say that you are pretty amazing!! I have enjoyed your knowledge !! Your absolutely a charm. Now I saw that light rail thing all over but the one where I almost stopped on the track was by Newport Center, then by the Colgate clock. So the thing stops incase idiots like me do not realize that those tracks are usable. Thanks so much!! I see you in a whole new light!! Your passion is great. Marilyn

If you want to use the LRT , use it on weekdays. You can park at the US 1/9 Park & Ride @ North Bergen. Don't go below Liberty State Park , unless your going Bayonne which i recommend. Hehe , it feels like an Amusement park ride when its accelerating & decelerating

Yes , and thats why i said 2040 , most of that was planned for 2020 but where behind by 10 years.... The Cloudy LRT operates when you want it...
Planned Hudson Bergen Light Rail Journal SQ line > Hoboken Terminal , Hoboken Ave / 16th Street , Route 139 / Palisades Ave , Route 139 / Central Avenue , Hoboken & JFK boulevard , Secaucus JCT should be opened by 2025(connecting 10 Regional Rail lines and up to 50 bus lines)<Those stations aren't the official ones but there pretty close form what i'm told.
Planned Hudson Bergen Light Rail 6th Street line , its up for debate due to corruption and bad deals > Newport , 6th & Erie , 6th & Monmouth , Newark Ave , Route 139 / Palisades Ave , Route 139 / Central Avenue , Hoboken & JFK boulevard , Secaucus JCT(Connecting 9 Regional Rail lines & up to 45 bus lines)
Proposed Journal SQ - Liberty State Park streetcar (connecting 2 light rail and 3 PATH lines)
Proposed Hoboken Streetcar , would run form Port Imperial to Hoboken Bus Terminal down Washington Street. (Connecting 10 Regional Rail lines , 2 PATH lines and 2 LRT lines.)
Proposed Hudson Bergen Light Rail extension to Cliffside Park (would connect 2 LRT lines and numerous bus lines. Also re leaving congestion on River Road.)
The list looks pretty good so far. But I can't help but notice that the South Eastern pt. of NJ (Atlantic & Cape May counties) is not included on the list. Because the rail system is so great there....
