follow-up - getting from Penn Station or Grand Central to Secaucus
Edited on Fri Mar-07-08 11:30 AM by NewJeffCT
just curious if that is do-able by bus or train? It's about 45 minutes via bus from the Port Authority bus terminal...

thanks

1. Secauscus to Penn Station is a snap - NJ Transit goes right there

2. is that a bus or a train?
just curious, because Amtrak goes into Penn Station - but has fewer stops in CT (New Haven, Bridgeport, Stamford for Amtrak west of New Haven... while Metro North has 10-12 between New Haven & Stamford)

4. Most of the NJ transit trains running from Penn Station stop at Secaucus Junction

5. weird
I've been looking at the NJ transit site and I can't find "Penn Station" other than "Newark Penn Station" which I assume is different than NYC or Manhattan Penn Station?

8. yes, i saw that part
but, if you go to the drop-down menus, I did not see an option for picking Penn Station, unless it's Newark Penn Station?

9. It's under New York Penn Station on the drop down menu
It's before Newark on the menu. Out of alphabetical order for some reason.

10. There's an option for NYC Penn Station -- but it is confusing!

My eyes are getting old - I didn't see the New York Penn Station above Newark Penn Station in the drop-down menu.
