The Northern pulled out, leaving Suzy-Q alone for a while... EL DID run the Northern from Hoboken for a while; TRACKSIDE IN THE EL NJ COMMUTER ZONE (I posted a review a few days ago) shows one waiting to leave in September 1966. It added 10 minutes or so to the run each way... It took 24 minutes between Ridgefield and Hoboken, 9 miles. - --- ERIE LACKAWANNA <erie_lackawanna_@_yahoo.com> wrote: > NYSW was the last to use Erie's Pavonia Avenue Station, Jersey City > > "Gary R.
