Info
Secaucus Junction (formerly known as Secaucus Transfer during planning stages; also signed simply as Secaucus) is a major commuter rail hub in Secaucus, New Jersey. It serves trains from all New Jersey Transit Rail lines except the Princeton Branch and Atlantic City Line, and also serves the Metro-North Railroad Port Jervis Line and Pascack Valley Line.
It was dedicated as the Frank R. Lautenberg Rail Station at Secaucus Junction and opened on December 15, 2003. U.S. Senator Frank Lautenberg, who died in 2013, was a transit advocate who had worked to allocate federal funds for the project.The $450 million, 321,000-square-foot (29,800 m2) station sits where the Main Line tracks pass under the Northeast Corridor allowing passengers to transfer between trains to and from Hoboken Terminal and trains to and from New York Penn Station. In March 2016, a new bus station with 14 bus berths opened at the terminal. It will be used primarily for transferring passengers but was also conceived to add redundancy to the transportation network.The station does not currently serve Amtrak trains, which pass through the station on the upper level without stopping.
