Talk:Hoboken Terminal

message: :Category:Commuter railroad terminals in New York City? After all, its located in New Jersey. Maybe there could be a category for NYC metro or something. RustyCale 23:26, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The idea for that category is to include all the commuter terminals that serve people commuting to NYC. In this case, until the Kearny Connection was built, this was the only terminal for the ex-Erie-Lackawanna lines (and still is for some). Other railroads had other terminals; there were at least six in Hudson County at one time. These are no less NYC commuter rail terminals than Flatbush, Jamaica and Long Island City. --SPUI (talk) 03:24, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Category question

message: The article says that the HBLR lines "operate from the south end of the terminal concourse."  Do they actually enter the building or do passengers have to go outside to board light rail trains? --Jfruh 18:24, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: None of the lines, not even the New Jersey Transit trains operate within the terminal building. All of the platforms are located outside for all train service, with the PATH train station accessible underground. The description that the HBLR trains "operate from the south end of the terminal concourse" could be reworded, but is fundamentally accurate, as the concourse is a covered area outside of the terminal building.

replies: text: Thanks for the info ... I guess I was mainly wondering whether there was platform to platform transfer abilities ... a lot of mainline-to-light rail transfers really involve leaving one station and crossing a street or something to enter another (as at 30th St. in Philly). --Jfruh 19:04, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hudson-Bergen Light Rail inside? 

message: Could someone in the area PLEASE add some good interior and exterior photos? The platform covers were novel when built. The clock tower - once present, then gone for decades, now rebuilt - adds an iconic landmark to the NJ side of the river. A night photo of the illuminated LACKAWANNA would be nice...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.104.102.32 (talk) 02:43, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

message: I feel like should know this already, but one line has me stumped;
Long distance trains to Chicago and Buffalo were permanently discontinued on January 5, 1970.
So, which station(s) in Chicago served DL&W trains from Hoboken? ----DanTD (talk) 14:35, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The DL&W used the Nickel Plate Road from Buffalo to Chicago, so it used LaSalle Street Station. —GFOLEY FOUR!— 15:09, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Until the Erie Lack consolidation, when the combined service went to Dearborn Street Station, which the Erie already used (the combined service used the Erie through Ohio and Indiana). oknazevad (talk) 22:52, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

message: Is it just me, or does the elegance of Hoboken Terminal rival that of Grand Central Terminal across the Hudson? ---------User:DanTD (talk)  17:36, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hoboken Terminal vs. Grand Central Terminal 

message: An editor reverted a statement that said that there were two Metro North lines from the station. User:Oknazevad changed it to one. In fact there are two joint NJ Transit/Metro-North lines, The Port Jervis Line aka Main Line and the Pascack Valley Line. See for example this notice by the MTA the agency running the Metro North. It demonstrates that this is part of NYS (Metro North) operations as well as NJ Transit. http://new.mta.info/press-release/metro-north/new-pascack-valley-line-schedule-goes-effect-june-20 Dogru144 (talk) 22:35, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Somewhat true. NJT owns the line all the way to the yard in Spring Valley, but the three Rockland County stations it stops at are under Metro-North control and the MTA does help fund it (particularly the expresses that go straight from Secaucus to Pearl River). But I don't know if it needs to be listed twice in the infobox, and if I were to choose only one place, it'd be under NJT as the vast majority of stations are in New Jersey, and counterbalancing the NY expresses some trains short turn at New Bridge Landing, making them New Jersey only. Plus there is the track ownership issue. In contrast to the Port Jervis Line, which is fully leased to Metro-North between Suffern and Port Jervis, setting it off from the NJT-owned trackage it connects to and and giving rise to its separate name, the PVlL is wholly owned by NJT and operates under only one name. Anybody with a third opinion here?  User:DanTD, User:Epicgenius, others? oknazevad (talk) 04:03, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: According to the NJT Map, the NJT Pascack Valley Line operates into New York, but there is no need to transfer to Metro-North. The schedules for the Pascack Valley Line on the MTA's website redirect to the NJT website, so my best guess is that the Pascack Valley Line's three stations in New York are NJT-operated under the MNR brand. Epicgenius (talk) 04:16, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: My understanding has always been that the whole Pascack Valley Line is New Jersey Transit, and Metro-North just leases the stations in Rockland County, while the NJT Main Line and Bergen County Line end in Suffern, whereas the Port Jervis Line begins in Suffern, although they use a few NJT stations on the Main Line south of the border. Bottom line; The only Metro-North line at Hoboken is the Port Jervis Line. ---------User:DanTD (talk)  04:41, 21 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Two lines jointly operated with Metro-North

message: I understand that the rest of Hoboken is wheelchair accessible, but aren't the NJT platforms low-level, making them incompatible? If that bit is inaccessible, then it should be noted. Sportsguy17 (T • C) 18:11, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: They have portable lifts to allow wheelchair users to board the trains. It's operated by a station attendant upon request. It's not the fastest method, but it does work, and I believe fulfills the legal requirements for being considered accessible. oknazevad (talk) 20:18, 31 July 2015 (UTC)
