The catenary wires on the inbound tracks date back to the 30s and 40s in many places.

And let's not discuss the portal bridge. Still a year+ away from the replacement opening to traffic -- and just a single track at that.

Heat spells like the one we have now cause sag, which causes delays or suspensions.

I certainly wouldn't rely on NJT to get me anywhere time-sensitive.

And that's from someone born & raised here in NJ.
