I remember those days of the 20 minute Beechcraft flight down I-78 - I once saw one loading up at ABE to make the quick 67 mile hop over to EWR. Still, it's funny to think this flight gets the bus while FNT-DTW and TOL-DTW still get planes (though I guess it's not too economical to run an RJ 4x a day on a 67 mile sector; then again, CO has run an ERJ in the past between EWR and HPN; a 35 mile flight).
