The PATH is operated by, and named after, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. PATH trains run 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. The system has a route length of 13.8 miles ( 22.2 km ), not including any route overlap. As of October 2016, PATH had an average weekday ridership of 276,417. PATH trains use tunnels only in Manhattan, Hoboken, and downtown Jersey City. The tracks cross the Hudson River through century - old cast iron tubes that rest on the river bottom under a thin layer of silt. PATH 's route from Grove Street in Jersey City west to Newark runs in open cuts, at grade level, and on elevated track. While some PATH stations are adjacent to or connected to New York City Subway, Newark Light Rail, Hudson - Bergen Light Rail, and New Jersey Transit stations, there are no free transfers between these different, independently run transit systems. PATH accepts the same pay - per - ride MetroCard used by the New York City Transit system, but it does not accept unlimited ride, reduced fare, or EasyPay MetroCards.

It was originally known as the Hudson & Manhattan Railroad ( H&M ). Although the railroad was first planned in 1874, existing technologies could not safely tunnel under the Hudson River. Construction began on the existing tunnels in 1890, but stopped shortly thereafter when funding ran out. Construction resumed in 1900 under the direction of William Gibbs McAdoo, an ambitious young lawyer who had moved to New York from Chattanooga, Tennessee. McAdoo later became president of what was known, for many years, as the H&M, Hudson Tubes or McAdoo Tunnels. Construction Main articles : Uptown Hudson Tubes and Downtown Hudson Tubes One of the original plans, with branches to the Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal ( lower left ) and the IRT Lexington Avenue Line at Astor Place ( center ). The first tunnel ( the more northern of the uptown pair ) was originally built without an excavation shield or iron construction because the chief engineer of the time, Dewitt Haskin, believed that the river silt was strong enough to maintain the tunnel 's form ( with the help of compressed air ) until a 2 - foot - 6 - inch - thick ( 76 cm ) brick lining could be constructed. Haskin 's plan was to excavate the tunnel, then fill it with compressed air to expel the water and to hold the iron plate lining in place. They succeeded in building the tunnel out by approximately 1,200 feet ( 366 m ) from Jersey City until a series of blowouts -- including a particularly serious one in 1880 that took the lives of 20 workers -- ended the project. Hudson tunnels shortly after their completion When the New York & Jersey Tunnel Company resumed construction on the tunnels in 1902, chief engineer Charles M. Jacobs employed a different method of tunneling using tubular cast iron plating. An enormous mechanical shield was pushed through the silt at the bottom of the river. The displaced mud was then placed into a chamber, where it was later shoveled into small cars that hauled it to the surface. In some cases, the silt was baked with kerosene torches to facilitate easier removal of the mud. The southern tunnel of the uptown pair was constructed using the tubular cast iron method. Construction of the uptown tunnels was completed in 1906. A second pair of tunnels was built about 1 ⁄ miles ( 2.0 km ) south of the first pair. Construction began in 1906 and was completed in 1909, also using the tubular cast iron method. Each track enjoys its own separate tunnel, which enables a better ventilation via the piston effect. When a train passes through the tunnel it pushes out the air in front of it toward the closest ventilation shaft in front, and `` sucks - in '' the air to the tunnel from the closest ventilation shaft behind it. By contrast, the eastern ends of the tunnels, located underneath Manhattan, employed cut and cover construction methods. Opening Park Place Station in Newark was the H&MRR 's terminus until the completion of Newark Penn Station in the late 1930s. The first trains ran in 1907 and revenue service started between Hoboken Terminal and 19th Street at midnight on February 25, 1908, after President Theodore Roosevelt pressed a button at the White House that turned on the electric lines in the uptown tubes ; an extension of H&M from 19th Street to 23rd Street opened on June 12 of the same year. On July 19, 1909, service began between the Hudson Terminal in Lower Manhattan and Exchange Place in Jersey City, through the downtown tubes. The connection between Exchange Place and the junction near Hoboken Terminal opened on August 2, 1909. On September 6, 1910, the H&M was extended from Exchange Place west to Grove Street, and on November 10 of that year was extended from 23rd Street to 33rd Street. On November 27, the PRR tunnel to New York Penn Station opened. H&M was extended west from Grove Street to Summit Avenue and Manhattan Transfer on October 1, 1911, and then to Park Place, Newark on November 26 of that year. After completion of the uptown Manhattan extension to 33rd Street and the westward extension to the now - defunct Manhattan Transfer and Park Place Newark terminus in 1911, the H&M was considered complete. The final cost was estimated at $55 - $60 million ( $1,498,000,000 to $1,634,000,000 today ). External relations and expansion Originally, the Hudson Tubes were designed to link three of the major railroad terminals on the Hudson River in New Jersey -- the Erie and Pennsylvania Railroad ( PRR ) in Jersey City and the Lackawanna in Hoboken -- with New York City. While PATH still provides a connection to train stations in Hoboken and Newark, the commuter train stations at Pavonia ( originally named Erie by H&M, currently Newport ) and Exchange Place ( the PRR station ) were eventually closed and subsequently demolished. Beginning in the latter part of the 20th century, the rail yards at Pavonia and Exchange Place were replaced with large - scale office, residential, and retail developments. There were early negotiations for Pennsylvania Station to also be shared by the two railroads. Attempts to extend the Tubes to Astor Place and Grand Central Terminal failed, even after some construction began on the extension. There was also a plan to build an extension from the curve west of Hoboken Terminal to where Secaucus Junction is now, and a plan for a north -- south connection from the 33rd Street Station south on Broadway to Union Square and then a new alignment to Hudson Terminal. The opening of the Holland Tunnel in 1927, coupled with the Depression that began shortly after, began the decline of H&M. The later construction of the Lincoln Tunnel and the George Washington Bridge further enticed people away from the railroad. Manhattan Transfer was closed on June 20, 1937, and H&M was realigned to Newark Penn Station from the Park Place terminus a quarter - mile north ; the Harrison station across the Passaic River was moved several blocks south as a result. On the same day, the Newark City Subway was extended to Newark Penn Station. The upper level of the Centre Street Bridge to Park Place later became Route 158. Port Authority operation Bankruptcy and takeover PATH train at Newark Penn Station on September 2, 1966 Promotions and other advertising proved ineffectual at slowing the financial decline. In 1954, H&M fell into bankruptcy. Although it continued to operate, the H&M remained under bankruptcy court protection for years and received a tax cut in 1956. In 1960, creditors approved a tax plan to reorganize the company. The construction of the World Trade Center enabled a compromise between the Port Authority, New York, and New Jersey. The Port Authority agreed to purchase and maintain the Tubes in return for the rights to build the World Trade Center on the land occupied by H&M 's Hudson Terminal, which was the Lower Manhattan terminus of the Tubes. On September 1, 1962, the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad Company ceased operation of the Hudson Tubes, and service began through the Port Authority Trans - Hudson Corporation ( PATH ), a subsidiary organization of the Port Authority. Upon taking over the H&M Railroad, the Port Authority spent $70 million to modernize PATH 's infrastructure. PATH arriving at Harrison, NJ on July 4, 1969 In 1973, and again in 1978, PATH workers went on strike due to union disagreements with the Port Authority. The 1973 strike lasted 63 days, and the 1978 strike went on for 81 days. Both strikes were due to disputes over salary increases that the Port Authority was unwilling to grant. 1980s and 1990s During the 1980s, the PATH system experienced substantial growth in ridership, which meant the infrastructure needed expansion and rehabilitation. The Port Authority announced a plan in 1988 to upgrade the infrastructure so that stations on the Newark -- WTC line could accommodate longer 8 - car trains while 7 - car trains could operate between Journal Square and 33rd Street. In August 1990, the Port Authority put forth a $1 billion plan to renovate the PATH stations and add new rail cars. To help provide revenue, the Port Authority installed video monitors in its stations that display advertising. At that time, the Port Authority incurred a $135 million deficit annually, which it sought to alleviate with a fare hike to reduce the per passenger subsidy. By 1992, the Port Authority had spent $900 million on infrastructure improvements, including track repairs, modernizing communications and signaling, new ventilation equipment, and installing elevators at most stations to accommodate the disabled. A new car maintenance facility was also added in Harrison, at a cost of $225 million. Around 1990, the new maintenance yard at Harrison was opened. On October 12, 1990, PATH 's old Henderson Street Yard -- a below - grade, open - air train storage yard at the northeast corner of Marin Boulevard and Christopher Columbus Drive just east of the Grove Street station -- was closed. On December 11, 1992, a coastal storm caused extensive flooding in the PATH tunnels, resulting in the system being out of service for 10 days. A 2,500 -- 3,000 - foot ( 760 -- 910 m ) section of track between Hoboken and Pavonia was flooded, as were other locations within the system. This was the longest period of disruption since a 2 ​ ⁄ month strike in 1980. When the 1993 World Trade Center bombing occurred, a section of ceiling in the PATH station collapsed and trapped dozens. Nonetheless, the PATH station did not suffer any structural damage. Within a week, the Port Authority was able to resume PATH service to the World Trade Center. On April 29, 1996, three trains began running express on the Newark -- World Trade Center service, cutting running time by 3.5 minutes. This change was made permanent in October after being piloted for six months. Weekend Hoboken -- World Trade Center service began on October 27, 1996. September 11, 2001, and recovery The temporary World Trade Center station opened in 2003. Inaugural train arrives from Newark at PATH 's temporary WTC station at 2 : 08 p.m., November 23, 2003, while passengers applaud its arrival The World Trade Center station in Lower Manhattan, under the World Trade Center, is one of PATH 's two New York terminals. The first station at the site, which replaced the old Hudson Terminal at the same place in 1971, was destroyed during the September 11 attacks, when the Twin Towers above it collapsed. Just prior to the collapse, the station was closed and any waiting passengers that were in the station were evacuated. With the station destroyed, service to Lower Manhattan was suspended for over two years. Exchange Place, the next station on the Newark -- World Trade Center line, also had to be closed because it could not operate as a `` terminal '' station. Instead, two uptown services ( Newark -- 33rd Street ( red ) and Hoboken -- 33rd Street ( blue ) ) and one intrastate New Jersey service ( Hoboken -- Journal Square ( green ) ) were put into operation. Only one after - hours train was put into service, Newark -- 33rd Street ( via Hoboken ). Modifications were made to a stub end tunnel ( also known as the Penn Pocket, which was originally built for short turn World Trade Center to Exchange Place runs to handle PRR commuters from Harborside Terminal ) to allow trains from Newark to reach the Hoboken bound tunnel and vice versa. The modifications required PATH to bore through the bedrock dividing the stub tunnel and the tunnels to and from Newark. The new Exchange Place station opened on June 29, 2003. Because of the original alignment of the tracks, trains to / from Hoboken use separate tunnels from the Newark service. From Newark, trains cross over to the Newark / Hoboken bound track just north of Exchange Place. The train then reversed direction and used a crossover switch to go to Hoboken. From Hoboken, trains enter on the Manhattan - bound track at Exchange Place. The train then reversed direction and used the same crossover switch to go to the Newark - bound tracks before entering Grove Street. PATH service to Lower Manhattan was restored when a new, $323 million second station opened on November 23, 2003 ; the inaugural train was the same one that had been used for the evacuation. The second, temporary station contained portions of the original station, but did not have heating or air conditioning systems installed. The temporary entrance was closed on July 1, 2007, and demolished to make way for the third, permanent station ; around the same time, the Church Street entrance opened. On April 11, 2007, the Port Authority announced that it will build a new entrance to the World Trade Center PATH station on Vesey Street. The new entrance opened in March 2008, and the entrance on Church Street has since been demolished. The contract to build the permanent World Trade Center PATH station, according to The Star - Ledger of Newark, was awarded to a joint - venture of Granite Construction North - East ( formally Granite Halmar ), Fluor Enterprises, Bovis Lend Lease, and Slattery Skanska. Platform A, the first platform of the permanent station, opened February 25, 2014, serving Hoboken - bound riders. Later 2000s On July 7, 2006, an alleged plot to detonate explosives in the PATH tunnels ( initially said to be a plot to bomb the Holland Tunnel ) was uncovered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The plot included the detonation of a bomb that could significantly destroy and flood the tunnels, endangering all the occupants and vehicles in the tunnel at the time of the explosion. The terror planners believed that Lower Manhattan could, as a result of the explosion, be flooded due to river water surging up the remaining tunnel after the blast. Officials say that this plan was unsound due to the strength of the tunnels. Since semi-trailer trucks are currently not allowed to pass through the Holland Tunnel, and it was unfeasible to carry such a bomb on board a PATH train, it was very difficult to get sufficient explosives into the tunnel to accomplish the plan. If the tunnel were to explode and allow water from the Hudson River to flood the ( Holland ) tunnel, Lower Manhattan would be spared since the area is 2 -- 10 feet ( 0.61 -- 3.05 m ) above sea level. Of the eight planners based in six different countries, three were arrested. 2008 was PATH 's centennial. To commemorate this occasion, PATH offered free rides to its passengers on February 25, 2008, between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. In January 2010, Siemens announced that PATH would be spending $321 million to upgrade its signal system using Siemens ' Trainguard MT CBTC to accommodate anticipated growth in ridership. The system will reduce the headway time between trains, so trains move more efficiently through the system and passenger wait times are reduced. Trainguard MT CBTC will equip the tracks and 130 of the 340 new EMU being constructed by Kawasaki Railcar. The goal is to increase passenger capacity from the current 240,000 passengers to 290,000 passengers per day. The entire system is expected to become operational in 2017. Hurricane Sandy At 12 : 01 am on October 29, 2012, PATH service was suspended system - wide in advance of Hurricane Sandy. The following day, Governor Christie of New Jersey stated that PATH train service would be out for 7 -- 10 days as a result of the damage caused by the hurricane. Storm surge from the hurricane caused significant flooding to PATH train stations in Hoboken and Jersey City, as well as at the World Trade Center. An image captured from a PATH security camera showing the ingress of water at Hoboken at 8 : 23 p.m. on October 29, quickly spread across the Internet and became one of several representative images from the hurricane. The first revenue PATH trains after the hurricane were the Journal Square to 33rd Street service, which recommenced on November 6 with modifications, running from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Service was extended west to Harrison and Newark on November 12, in place of the Newark -- World Trade Center service. Christopher Street and 9th Street stations initially remained closed due to overcrowding concerns ; beginning November 17 these stations were opened on weekends. Newark -- World Trade Center service resumed on November 26, on weekdays only, during which time the Newark - 33rd Street trains were shortened to Journal Square - 33rd Street, and Christopher Street and 9th Street were fully opened to serve all trains. On November 27, 2012, it was estimated that Hoboken would cost about $300 million to repair while staying closed `` for weeks '' including damage to 50 trainsets, scattered debris, mud, rusted tracks, and destroyed critical electrical equipment after as much as eight feet ( 2.4 m ) of water submerged the tunnels. In order to expedite the return of Hoboken service, from December 8 -- 9 to December 15 -- 16 Newark -- WTC service resumed operating on weekends, replacing Newark -- 33rd Street service to allow for uninterrupted weekend work windows in PATH 's Caissons Wye tunnels under Hoboken. As a result, Hoboken station reopened on December 19 for weekday Hoboken - 33rd Street service, followed by the resumption of weekday 24 - hour PATH service on January 9, 2013 and the Hoboken -- World Trade Center trains on January 29, with return of full PATH service at all stations at all times implemented by the weekend of March 1, following completion of repairs at Exchange Place and World Trade Center. Newark Airport extension proposals The Port Authority proposed extending the NWK - WTC line to Newark International Airport in the early 1970s. In 1973, the plan was amended so the line would be extended to Plainfield, New Jersey, with a stop in Elizabeth as well as another just outside the airport. At the Newark Airport stop, there would be a transfer to a people mover to the terminals themselves. Preliminary studies of the right - of - way, as well as a design contract, were conducted that year. This 15 - mile ( 24 km ) extension was approved in 1975. However, the Federal Urban Mass Transit Administration was wary of the proposed extension 's usefulness and was reluctant to give the $322 million in funds that the Port Authority had requested for the project, which represented about 80 % of the projected cost at the time. Eventually, the administration agreed to back the PATH extension. However, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the Port Authority 's use of bonds to finance the extension was not permitted, significantly setting back the project. In June 1976, the extension, then estimated to cost $600 million, was canceled completely in favor of improved bus service in New Jersey. In the mid-2000s, a Newark Airport extension was again considered as the Port Authority allocated $31 million to conduct a feasibility study of extending PATH two miles ( 3.2 km ) from Newark Penn Station. In September 2012, it was announced that work would commence on the study. The study estimated in 2004 the cost of the extension at $500 million. On September 11, 2013, Crain 's reported that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie would publicly support the PATH extension ; its estimated cost grew to $1 billion. The governor asked that the airport 's largest operator, United Airlines, consider flying to Atlantic City International Airport as an enticement to further the project. On February 4, 2014, the Port Authority proposed a 10 - year capital plan that included the PATH extension to Newark Liberty International Airport Station. The Board of Commissioners approved the Capital Plan, including the airport extension, on February 19, 2014. Plans include a planned $1.5 billion PATH extension to Newark Liberty International Airport. The alignment will follow the existing Northeast Corridor approximately one mile further west to airport 's rail station, where a connection to AirTrain Newark is available. Construction is expected to begin in 2018 and last five years. However, there were calls in late 2014 for reconsideration of Port Authority funding priorities, as the PATH extension was termed `` redundant '' of existing Manhattan - to - Newark Airport train service ( on NJ Transit 's Northeast Corridor Line and North Jersey Coast Line as well as Amtrak 's Keystone Service and Northeast Regional ), while funding was lacking for both the proposed Amtrak Gateway Tunnel for commuter trains under the Hudson River ( a substitute for the cancelled ARC Tunnel ), and the replacement of the aging and overcrowded Port Authority Bus Terminal. In December 2014, the PANYNJ awarded a three - year, $6 million contract to HNTB to perform cost analysis on the Newark Airport extension. On January 11, 2017, the PANYNJ released its 10 - year capital plan that included $1.7 billion for the extension. Under the plan, construction is projected to start in 2020, with service in 2026. Two public meetings on the project were scheduled for early December 2017. Incidents On October 21, 2009, a PATH train from Journal Square overran and crashed into the barricade as it arrived at 33rd Street, and jolted passengers. Approximately 13 of the 450 people riding the seven - car train suffered minor injuries, and seven people including two crew members and five passengers were taken to nearby hospitals. An investigation by the Port Authority determined that the accident was caused by human error. On May 8, 2011, a PATH train crashed into a platform in Hoboken Terminal, injuring 34 people. On January 7, 2013, an escalator at Exchange Place suddenly reversed itself, resulting in five injuries.

During weekday hours, PATH operates four train services, using three terminals in New Jersey and two in Manhattan. Each line is represented by a unique color, which also corresponds to the color of the lights on the front of the trains. The Journal Square -- 33rd Street ( via Hoboken ) service is the only line represented by two colors ( orange and blue ), since it is a late - night hours combination of the Journal Square -- 33rd Street and Hoboken -- 33rd Street services. During peak hours, trains operate every four to eight minutes on each service. Every PATH station except Newark and Harrison is served by a train every two to three minutes, for a peak - hour service of 20 to 30 trains per hour. PATH management has two principal passenger outreach initiatives : the `` PATHways '' newsletter, distributed free at terminals, and the Patron Advisory Committee. Services During the daytime on weekdays, four services operate : Newark -- World Trade Center Hoboken -- World Trade Center Journal Square -- 33rd Street Hoboken -- 33rd Street Between 11 : 00 p.m. and 6 : 00 a.m. Monday to Friday, and all - day Saturday, Sunday, and holidays, PATH operates two train services : Newark -- World Trade Center Journal Square -- 33rd Street ( via Hoboken ) Prior to April 9, 2006, Hoboken -- World Trade Center and Journal Square -- 33rd Street services were offered on Saturday, Sunday, and holidays between 9 : 00 a.m. and 7 : 30 p.m. Ongoing construction of the permanent World Trade Center Station in Manhattan prompted the indefinite discontinuation of these services on those times, being replaced with the Journal Square -- 33rd Street ( via Hoboken ) service. Passengers traveling from Hoboken to the World Trade Center must take the Journal Square -- 33rd Street service to Grove Street and transfer to the Newark -- World Trade Center train. PATH does not normally operate directly from Newark to Midtown Manhattan. However, after both 9 / 11 and Hurricane Sandy, special Newark -- 33rd Street services were operated to compensate for the loss of other lines and stations. The post-9 / 11 service from 2001 to 2003 used the red line color of the Newark -- World Trade Center service on the PATH system map, while the post-Sandy service of 2012 -- 13 used the yellow color of the Journal Square -- 33rd Street service from which it was extended.

Payment methods Quick cards On October 24, 2008, the Port Authority announced that as of November 30, 2008, NJ Transit ticket machines on NJ Transit stations will no longer sell the QuickCard and as of December 31, 2008, NJ Transit ticket machines in PATH stations ( Newark, Hoboken, Journal Square, Exchange Place, and Pavonia - Newport ) will no longer sell the cards. The machines at the 33rd Street, Grove Street and WTC stations were removed earlier in 2008. By the third quarter of 2008, PATH had completed the inactivation of all turnstiles that accepted cash ( in addition to the QuickCard, MetroCard and SmartLink card ). These turnstiles will continue to accept the various cards as fare payment. In 2010, PATH introduced a two - trip card costing $4.00 using the standard MetroCard form. Vending machines selling this card are in major PATH stations including 33rd St, World Trade Center and Journal Square. The front of the card is the standard MetroCard ( gold and blue ) but on the reverse it has the text `` PATH 2 - Trip Card '', `` Valid for two ( 2 ) PATH trips only '' and `` No refills on this card ''. The user had to dispose of the card after the trips are used up because the turnstiles do not keep ( or capture ) the card as was done with the discontinued QuickCard. At the end of 2010, the QuickCard was discontinued and replaced with SmartLink Gray, a non-refillable, disposable version of the SmartLink card. This card was sold at selected newsstand vendors and was available in 10, 20 and 40 trips. Unlike regular SmartLink cards, SmartLink Gray cards had expiration dates. SmartLink Gray was itself discontinued in January 2016. MetroCard SmartLink turnstiles at the WTC station accept both PATH SmartLink cards and MTA MetroCards. Main article : MetroCard ( New York City ) Pay - Per - Ride MetroCards, a brand of Metropolitan Transportation Authority ( MTA ) 's standard farecard, are accepted on PATH. In the fall of 2005, PATH and the MTA installed a number of MetroCard Vending Machines ( MVM ) on the concourse at the World Trade Center station and at the 30th Street entrance of the 33rd Street station. By the summer of 2006, MVMs were installed in all stations. These machines sell Pay - Per - Ride MetroCards and allow riders to refill SmartLink cards once they were introduced in 2007 ( see below ). In addition, these machines sell Single Ride PATH tickets for use only on the PATH system. The Port Authority installed new fare collection turnstiles at all PATH stations in 2005 and 2006. These turnstiles allowed passengers to pay their fare with a PATH QuickCard or an MTA Pay - Per - Ride MetroCard. SmartLink Main article : SmartLink ( smart card ) As of 2007, payment is also available with a smart card, known as SmartLink. The project is part of a Port Authority project to implement usage of a regional smart card that could be used on transit systems throughout the New York metropolitan area. The new turnstile program first began at the World Trade Center station. Until their discontinuance in December 2010, PATH QuickCards were only valid on the PATH rail system. The initial testing phase of the SmartLink system was delayed by several months due to software problems. It was originally intended to start in August 2006 and then was postponed to October 2006. Continuing problems moved the testing phase for Senior SmartLink cards to February 2007. The week of July 2, 2007, PATH began an initial roll out of the SmartLink card to the general public at the World Trade Center station. On July 23 the card was introduced at the 33rd Street terminal. On August 6 the card was introduced at the Hoboken terminal. Special vending machines that sold an 11 - trip SmartLink card were installed at terminal stations. The cost of the card at $20 which includes 11 trips plus a $5 charge for the card. In 2008 when the fare was increased to $1.75, these machines were upgraded to sell an $18 card which included 10 trips at $1.30 plus the $5.00 card fee. Also a machine selling just the card for $5.00 was installed. The cards can be registered online, allowing riders to retain unused trips in case the card is lost or stolen. A charge of $5 is assessed for a replacement card. In 2011, the card was $20 ( $15 for 10 trips + $5 for card ) In the initial stage, the SmartLink card will allow riders to place the same value on it as if they were purchasing a QuickCard by using machines located in PATH stations. A later stage will allow the rider to register the card to be automatically be refilled if the value on the card reaches a pre-set minimum. In June 2008, PATH inaugurated an online web account system allowing a cardholder to register the card and monitor its usage. It also allows for an automatic replenishment ( linked to a credit card ) when the card balance gets to 5 trips or 5 remaining days, depending on the type of trips on the card. Automatic replenishment is offered in 10 -, 20 -, and 40 - trip increments, as well as weekly and monthly passes. Fares are the same as regular purchases. Accessibility All terminals ( 33rd Street, Hoboken, World Trade Center, Journal Square and Newark ) are wheelchair accessible, as are Exchange Place and Pavonia / Newport. The Port Authority 's 2007 -- 2016 Capital Plan has allocated over $17 million to renovate Grove Street, with a little over $750,000 allocated for 2007. The renovation will include compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. Harrison is currently undergoing reconstruction and will also become accessible, scheduled for completion in April 2017. When completed, only four of the stations in New York City will not be accessible to wheelchair users. Rolling stock As of September 2011, there is only one model, the PA5. The cars are 51 feet ( 16 m ) long, and 9.2 feet ( 2.8 m ) wide. This is a smaller loading gauge compared to similar vehicles in the US, and is due to the restricted structure gauge through the tunnels under the Hudson River. They can achieve a maximum speed of 55 mph ( 89 km / h ) in regular service. Each car seats 35 passengers, on longitudinal seating, with a larger number of standees in each car. PA5 cars have stainless steel bodies and three doors on each side. LCD displays above the windows ( between the doors ) display the destination of that particular train. The PA5 cars are coupled into seven - car or eight - car formations, with conductors ' cabs on all cars and engineers ' cabs on the `` A '' ( driving ) cars. The PATH operates fifty trainsets of PA5 cars, which brings the total number of PA5 cars to 350. The Port Authority awarded a $499 million contract to Kawasaki to design and build 340 new PATH cars ( called the PA5 ), which replaced the system 's entire aging fleet. With an average age of 42 years, the fleet was the oldest of any operating heavy rail line in the United States. The Port Authority announced that the new cars would be updated versions of MTA 's R142A cars. The first of these new cars entered revenue service July 10, 2009. As part of the fleet expansion program and signal system upgrade, the Port Authority has the option to order a total of 119 additional PA5 cars as the option order ; 44 of these cars would be to expand the NWK -- WTC line to 10 - car operation while the remaining 75 cars would be used to increase service frequencies once Communication - based train control ( CBTC ) is implemented throughout the system in 2017.

PA2 cars were built in 1966 -- 1967, also by St. Louis. Hawker Siddeley built the PA3 cars in 1972. The PA4s were built by Kawasaki Heavy Industries in 1986 -- 1987. All cars were factory equipped with 10 ton Stone Safety Air Conditioning units when built. PA1, PA2, and PA3 cars had painted aluminum bodies, and two doors on each side. Back - lit panels above the doors displayed the destination of that particular train : HOB for Hoboken, JSQ for Journal Square, NWK for Newark, 33 for 33rd Street, and WTC for World Trade Center. The MBTA 's Blue and Orange Line cars, built in 1978 -- 1979 and 1980 -- 1981 respectively were based on the PA3. All PA1 - PA3 cars were overhauled by Kawasaki in the mid 1980s. PA4 cars had stainless steel bodies, and three doors on each side. Back - lit displays above the windows ( between the doors ) displayed the destination of that particular train. In 1972, PATH revived the tradition of naming its passenger cars. Each car was named after a community whose residents rely on PATH service to reach their destinations. Most of the municipalities were in New Jersey, but there were also a few from Rockland County, New York, along with New York City itself. Each end of the interior of a named car featured a brushed aluminum plaque bearing the name of the city or town along with a brief history and description of the area `` today '' ( meaning in 1972 ), followed by the lines `` This car is named in honor of ( municipality name ), one of more than 300 communities whose residents travel on the Port Authority Trans - Hudson interstate rail system. '' All PA1 - PA4 equipment were retired in 2009 - 2011, with the PA4 's remaining on site as work service cars.

Rolling stock Incidents A train consisting of cars 745, 143, 160, 845, 750, 139, and 612 was left under the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. The collapse of the south tower largely destroyed the train ; cars 745 and 143 were not positioned directly beneath the tower and were the only cars to survive the collapse relatively intact. These two cars were cleaned and placed in storage following the collapse while the remains of the rest of the train had been stripped of usable parts and scrapped. The cars were intended to be displayed in the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. However, the cars were deemed too large to be displayed in the museum ; as a result, car 745 was instead donated to the Shore Line Trolley Museum, while car 143 was donated to the Trolley Museum of New York On October 21, 2009, an unidentified PATH train from New Jersey crashed into the barricade as it arrived at the 33rd Street station. On May 8, 2011, PA5 cab car 5741 ran into the bumper block of a yard tail track near Journal Square station. The car was back in service by June 2012. Gallery The PA5 cars at WTC station.

Inside a PA2 car A PA1 model leaving the 14th Street station Inside a PA1 car FRA Railroad status While the PATH resembles a typical intraurban heavy rail rapid transit system, it is in fact under the jurisdiction of the Federal Railroad Administration ( FRA ). PATH continues to be subject to FRA regulations because it used to share trackage with the Pennsylvania Railroad between Hudson interlocking near Harrison and Journal Square. In more recent past the line connected to the Amtrak mainline near Harrison station and also near Hudson tower. These connections have since been severed as the track layout at Hudson interlocking has been modified considerably. While PATH operates under several grandfather waivers, it is required to do things not typically seen on American transit systems. Some of these include the proper fitting of grab irons to all PATH rolling stock, the use of federally certified locomotive engineers, installation of positive train control ( PTC ), and compliance with the federal railroad hours of service regulations. While PATH once shared trackage with the PRR, this joint running and all interlocking connections to former lines have been cut, except for one diamond crossing on a siding near the Hudson tower. Due to its relative isolation from the national rail network, PATH could potentially end its status as a railroad. However, this railroad status might prove valuable if PATH were to extend service along existing rail routes as normally transit lines are required to either run on separate rights of way or have time separation with FRA railroads. Photography restrictions As of 2016, the ( then current ) PATH regulations are that all photography, film making, video taping, making of drawings or other visual depictions of the PATH system is prohibited without a permit by PATH and supervision by a PATH representative. This includes photography by tourists and railfans. Although there have been US Supreme Court decisions stating that casual photography is covered by the First Amendment, the case law is mixed. While it is clear that under the law PATH employees may not force a casual photographer to destroy or surrender their film or images, confiscations and arrests have occurred. Litigation following such confiscations and / or arrests have generally ( but not always ) resulted in the dropping of charges and / or the awarding of damages. Tunnel decoration On trains bound for Newark or Hoboken from World Trade Center, a short, zoetrope - like advertisement used to be seen in the tunnel before entering Exchange Place. There also used to be one on 33rd Street - bound trains between 14th and 23rd Streets near the abandoned 19th Street station. Every year, around Thanksgiving, PATH employees light a decorated Christmas tree at a switching station in the tunnel used by trains running from 33rd Street and Hoboken into the Pavonia / Newport station. This tradition has continued since the 1950s when a signal operator, Joe Wojtowicz, started hanging a string of Christmas lights in the tunnel. While PATH officials were initially concerned about putting up decorations in the tunnel, they later acquiesced and the tradition continues to this day. After the September 11, 2001 attacks, a back - lit U.S. flag was put up beside the tree as a tribute to the victims of the attacks. In popular culture PATH trains and stations have occasionally been the setting for music videos, commercials, movies, and TV programs, sometimes as a stand - in for the New York City Subway. The video for the White Stripes 's song `` The Hardest Button to Button '' was taped at the 33rd Street station.
