Re: (erielack) Pascack Valley / NJ&NY



The Pascack Brook passes through Montvale, Park Ridge, Woodcliff Lake,
Hillsdale and Westwood before feeding into the Hackensack River.  The Pascack
Valley Line bridges over Pascack Brook between Hillsdale and Westwood.

Public timetable collectors will likely post with the exact dates, but from
memory timetables showed NJ&NY RR into the 1960's; Pascack Valley Line/NJ&NY RR
late 60's early 70's, and Pascack Valley Line thereafter.
