While not the first schedule after the reopening of the Atlantic City Line in 1989, this schedule was effective relatively soon after the reopening of the line.

(2002-09-23) Montclair Boonton Transition Schedule

March 12th, 2009

As long as I introduced the first official Montclair Boonton Line Schedule, here is what is truly the first schedule to use the Montclair Connection.  This schedule was in effect for one week only while the final preperations were being made for the full service to begin the following week.

Apparently NJ Transit went to no major expense to print this schedule.

Also, it should be noted that this schedule is really only a compilation of the previous schedules on both lines.

Recent Firsts

March 12th, 2009

While not extremely old, these two schedules include some recent firsts of service.

(1996-06-10) Morris & Essex First MidTOWN Direct Schedule
(2009-09-29) Montclair Boonton First Schedule

NJ Transit Employee Schedules (1986-10-26)

March 9th, 2009

 Here are some NJ Transit Employee Schedules from the mid 1980’s.  Notice that the Newark Division Schedule did not list the NE Corridor Line trains that ran to Jersey Avenue or Trenton.  Only the ones that ran via the North Jersey Coast Line were shown.

(1986-10-26) NJT Hoboken
(1986-10-26) NJT Newark

(1957-10-27) CNJ Condensed Schedule

July 3rd, 2008

They called this a “Condensed Through Train” schedule.  This is true in that it only shows the major stops on routes headed out west, but it also has a complete timetable going along the Jersey Shore.

(1957-10-27) CNJ Condensed Schedule 

Metro North New Haven Schedules Updated

July 2nd, 2008

Someone pointed out to me that the New Haven schedules were not on Mediafire.  I looked it up and sure enough, they had vanished from there.  I corrected the links in the original post, and added them into the master list at the top of the page.

Thank you Brian.

Southern Pacific Employee Timetables (1992-10-25)

July 2nd, 2008

White these aren’t extremely old themselves, since the Southern Pacific is not an entity anymore, I figures these would be appropriate for this site.

SP Midwest Region (1992-10-25)
SP Pacific Region (1992-10-25)
SP Southwest Region (1992-10-25)

So what constitutes an “Old” Train Schedule?????

May 14th, 2008

I recently posted some schedules from 1999.  While I try to post things that are “old,” I have no set criteria for what constitutes old.  I probably will not post much from the 90’s and the new millennium, as they are still somewhat recent, but every rule has its exceptions.  In this case, I happened to have this set out of the box and decided to scan them for my archives, so it was easy to just post them.
