[edit] Beginning of name?

Can anyone identify when then Pascack Valley Line name was first applied to this route? 65.96.180.86 07:07, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Don't know. The Jones book might tell you. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 06:02, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More northbound trains than southbound?

I haven't ridden the old Pascack Valley Line probably 30 years (some of the cars still had the old Erie Lack-of-interest logos on them). Good to see it's still running. Looks like they've even added more service (I don't remember anything running as they do now). I just looked at the schedule and noticed they're running 10 trains a day into Hoboken in the morning, and 13 back out in the afternoon. How do they do this? Are they dead-heading 3 trains southbound in the morning? -- RoySmith (talk) 19:36, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

• I've wondered that myself every time I look at the schedule. Another theory is that those three extra trains each day are piling up in Spring Valley. Alansohn 20:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Is it possible that they change the consists, so the average cars per train is higher in the morning? --NE2 20:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
