i remember vivadly being inside the Secaucus building with my dad for the first time and just watching Amtrak and NJT trains go by a while before the pandemic hit. it was so much fun, and i also go to stop by at the Dunkin Donuts inside there. i’m fr never forgetting the times i got to go in there
Nice video, yeah that station was short lived nearly forgotten. Could you make a video about the old greenwood lake boonton line before the montclair boonton?
Good idea - you could even go back before the merger. The Lackawanna and Erie had separate stations in Mountain View (Wayne). It's really a shame what NJT did with this line, back in the early 70s the EL even had limited service up there on Saturday and the that local could go between Mountain View and Hoboken in 44 minutes. Today a local takes about an hour. Progress?
VERY interesting! And I had no idea about the 1996 NJT train wreck. I'mm even more surprised that when I rode the Ross Rowland C&O 614 / New Jersey Transit excursion later that year there was no mention of it by anyone anywhere. I AM surprised that someone who was color-blind achieved engineer status, that was NEVER allowed in the old railroad days.
@@Voucher765 Not quite yet. It's been sold to an organization that fully intends to restore it to operation but it hasn't started yet. But be patient! Good times are coming!
Why was Secaucus Jct set up so that you are required to show your ticket at a turnstile to transfer between divisions? Is there any other station in the NJT network that requires this? I have issues every time whether with a paper ticket or even a bar code on my phone (a customer service rep said my phone wasn't bright enough!), and I nearly miss my connection. Why aren't there stairs that lead directly from the upper level platform down to the lower level platform, which would save at least five minutes?

@wayneantoniazzi2706 I know and I'm hyped
Great research!!! You’ve made an interesting, informative video. You done good!!!
My aunt used to commute to Harmon Cove from Rutherford for a period in the '80s.
Keep making these Train videos I L watching them on RUclips
I wonder what this area looked in the steam era, Probably it was an overpass for the Pennsy crossing the Erie
Well done sir very well done
I know it’s a very small station but you should do Great Notch station.
W video btw R.I.P Harmon Cove
Can you make a video of the Phillipsburg NJ R staition?

I remember the 1996 disaster!!
Can you do the carlton hill spur?
What is the history of the Bergen County line and the Pasack Valley Line in Northern NJ? Is the Port Jervis line part of NJ Transit or MNRR?
Both are Erie. Port Jervis line is owned by NS, leased to MN, operated by NJT
Technically not actually a junction since the upper and lower lines don't interconnect.
Some Hoboken division trains are on the upper level
which ones?
