NJT Evening Trains to Avoid From NY Penn

NJT Evening Trains to Avoid From NY Penn

by

In a recent post at Facebook's Delayed on NJ Transit Support Group. I shared the data for the 3 months between 1-Sep 2021 and 1-Dec 2021.
(it's also at the bottom of this post)

With eight cancels apiece, there was a tie for first place:

  • The 5:12 PM Northeast Corridor Line to Jersey Ave (#3725)
  • The 6:18 PM Morris & Essex Line to Summit (#6355)

Since the NEC is the largest NJT line, we focused on the 5:12 PM first.
A breakdown (no pun intended) of why NJT cancels the NEC 5:12 PM.

DateReason
3-Sep-2021NJT did not provide a reason.
10-Sep-2021NEC train #3725, the 5:12 PM departure from PSNY, was cancelled due to a mechanical issue.
13-Sep-2021NEC train #3725, the 5:12 PM departure from PSNY is cancelled due to earlier mechanical issues.
25-Oct-2021NJT did not provide a reason.
26-Oct-2021NEC train #3725, the 5:12 PM departure from PSNY, is cancelled due to equipment availability resulting from earlier mechanical issues.
28-Oct-2021NEC train #3725, the 5:12 PM from PSNY, is cancelled due to equipment availability resulting from earlier mechanical issues.
16-Nov-2021NEC train #3725, the 5:12 PM from PSNY is cancelled due to equipment availability resulting from earlier police assistance.
