You are Delusional, NJT


The NJT board meets today to discuss a proposal to cut service and hike fares 20 to 30 percent. I know this because I am listening to the radio news on my iPod as we are at a dead stop outside of Secaucus. Regular readers know that my ride into the city every morning routinely comes to a dead stop and it's always one of two problems - overhead wires or a disabled Amtrak. Today it's Amtrak. I took a 7:15 train to be sure I will be at my office for a video conference at 9. You would think this would not be a problem. But it is. Because the only thing you can count on with NJ Transit is agita.
