Attached is the Boonton Line - Greenwood Lake public timetable dated April
24, 1966. In the morning there were two through trains and two connecting
trains from Wanaque. The connecting trains were the first and last. The
first connecting train apparently went back to Wanaque and the second waited
at Mountain View and then came east from there as a local.

In the evening, there were four through trains plus one connecting train
(which as Ed recollected hit Wayne around 7:30).

The ferries were still running, plus weekend service, plus trains to
Branchville - but not for long.

There were at least three thru trains to Midvale in 1966. The only
connector I remember was the one that met the Boonton Line train at around
7:30.
