Amtrak / NJ Transit makes the MTA look better. With the MTA it's usually only a few lines at a time and if you're lucky enough to live in an area with multiple lines you have options if your main train is down
If our governments at every level didn’t create and fund so many damn “entitlement” programs over the years, there would have been PLENTY of dough to PROPERLY MAINTAIN AMERICA’S PUBLIC TRANSIT SYSTEMS!!!!!!! 😡😡😡
Trump should shutdown Amtrak and replace it with a new non-profit japanese company. The failed public transit system cannot be fixed by simply throwing money at it. Major reasons for trains not running on time include overhead wiring problems, train breakdowns, and staff shortages due to illnesses. Compared to public transportation systems outside the U.S., this highlights a societal failure where even trillions of dollars could be wasted without achieving meaningful improvements.
“non-profit “ and “Japanese” don’t exactly go together. And we all know that doing that would take jobs from Americans which is a huge sticking point for the MAGA crowd. Oh, not to mention the tariffs he would levy on the train cars.
You act like the Japanese can fix everything. This is not really an Amtrak problem or NJTransit problem it's a systematic issue that exists for all infrastructure building, which means it's a government problem. The Japanese can't fix that. The Japanese can't fix land acquisition issues in the United States. The Japanese can't fix laws that require an overload of public hearings to get anything approved. The Japanese can't fix loopholes in the environmental regulations. The Japanese can't fix overly complex labour laws. If you want to look up a real case study as to how screwed up the beauracracy is in general in America, SNCF (French railway company) backed out of California HSR to go to Morocco which had a "more stable government system" (their words). Yeah you can blame it on California but the problems California faced are the same across the country. I doubt JR will want to come and mess around here. And also there are no non-profit Japanese railway companies. They're all for profit.
We also are spending more money than ever in NEC railroad improvements. And the money doesn’t go to Taiwan or Ukraine directly. It goes to our defense manufacturing to replace old stock sold to Taiwan and Ukraine.

I don't miss taking NJ transit, there is always something causing delays or cancelations.
Nope nope nope. I saw that Hotdog stand... I'm grabbing a dog relaxing and then going home to work.
You notice PATH never has obstacles;)
Otherwise known as the Port Authority Trans Hudson Subway.

Proper name is catenary not overhead wire...
What are they going to do when the path is suspended in and out of Hoboken
you know if we just stopped fk around, we could have a futuristic air train system in place already all through out tristate

Or stealing it thru pork projects.
Republicans are the ones who regularly try to reduce funding for mass transit
Like. Ants!😮

This is such a braindead interpretation 😂

More money for Taiwan and Ukraine

And to the Zionists so they can continue committing genocide and war crimes 🤦🏽♂️
You are a real greamer if you hope to see money from Ukraine for so-called "sold" weapon.@@portcybertryx222
