*MORRISTOWN LINE JOURNALS*

.

-the Morristown Line is one of New Jersey Transit’s commuter lines and is 1 of 2 branches that run along the [Morris/Essex Lines]-

.

Out of 60 inbound and 58 outbound daily weekday trains, 28 inbound and 26 outbound Midtown Direct trains (about 45%) use the Kearny Connection (opened June 10, 1996) to Secaucus Junction and New York Penn Station

the rest go to Hoboken Terminal.

Passengers can transfer at Newark Broad Street or Summit to reach the other destination.

There is frequent service weekdays, with hourly service to/from New York (none going beyond Dover) on weekends

Until August 13, 2006, there was also hourly service to Hoboken

On that date, service between Hoboken and Summit was cut back to once every two hours on weekends. On May 11, 2008, off-peak weekday Hoboken-Dover trains (600 Series) were cut. In addition, weekend Gladstone trains were cut back to Summit, and a shuttle trains is operated every two hours between Newark Broad Street and Hoboken Terminal.

Recently the line between Millburn and Summit underwent extensive rehabilitation. This included the replacement of the creosote crossties on both tracks with concrete crossties, the replacement of all crossties on the double trestle over Short Hills Avenue, and the replacement of several sections of rail. More recently work has been progressing briskly on rehabilitating both tracks between Summit and Dover with concrete crossties and new welded rail, and rehabilitation of select road overpasses.

(‘Hurricane Sandy’ inflicted severe damage on the Morristown Line on October 29–30, 2012, as fallen trees brought down catenary and signal wires and washed out sections of track, most notably through the New Jersey Meadowlands on both the main line and the Kearny Connection)

(‘Midtown Direct’ service was restored from Dover to New York on November 12, 2012; service to Hoboken and west of Dover resumed on November 19)
