This light is turned on by the train's conductor who uses a key to turn a switch in a box located on a post along the train platform about one carlength from the gate. The light cluster with the second top light on tells the crew that the connecting ferryboat for that train has arrived in its slip in Jersey City. This light is activated from the ferrymaster's office. The third light is turned on at the train gate by the train caller, sometimes known as the starter. When the train departs, the train caller will switch off all three lights.
Lights shine white from the concourse.
From the opposite side, as viewed by the train and engine crew, the bottom light is green, the top red, the side amber. Jersey Central Ferry Ferry Timetable, April 26, 1964. Thanks to Don Shorock for making this available. This site is not affiliated with any transit agency or provider.
