The Harrison station platform is a wonderful place for
train watching. PATH is on the outside of the five tracks that come
through here. The inside three tracks are used by NJ Transit
for several commuter routes, and by Amtrak for its high speed Acela
service along the Northeast Corridor, and for other passenger trains
destined to, or arriving from, places as far away as Florida. The parallel
lift bridges across the Passaic River are in the background, along with the skyline of downtown
Newark. |
