THE DRUNKS (politicians) from BOTH STATES profit from these state and more fed funds not not an inch of grass removed form the ROW for first track!!!
Where are the similar West Shore trains 60 years later that received similar funding after four owners. Tracks are there but no new platforms for new service

wheels get greased enough in terms of voters' determination. If a pol thinks
he/she might get voted out if they're not in favor, then things will move to
the fast track.
We can listen to all we wish when it comes to studies, funding, but it always
goes right back to the pols. If the pols don't feel the pressure to walk the
walk rather than talk the talk, then zero will happen. Bottom line is that
it's up to the constituents in NJ, PA and NY.
