(erielack) New York Times Article NJ Section 26 Dec

[bob gillis <rpgillis_@_bellatlantic.net>]

The article about transit projects in NJ contains many errors.  I wonder
where the writer got the information.

The Lackawanna Cutoff was completed by 1875.

"NJT plans to convert nearly half a dozen light rail lines."

"Hudson Bergen Light Rail....willbe extended to the Hoboken PATH
terminal...."

"..another [light rail line] is being built to connect [Newark's] two
business districts."  what two business districts?

The M&E passenger will transfer at Secaucus to get to New York Penn
Station.

" For now state officials propose building a new tunnel underneath the
existing one [to Penn Station],..."

Since J Warsh of NJT and D Bowen of NJARP are the only people quoted,
did most of the information or misinformation come from them?
