| | Newark City Subway (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) |
 | | The Newark City Subway was, for the most part, constructed in the bed of the Morris Canal, which itself was built between Jersey City and Phillipsburg, NJ in the period 1825-1837. |
 | | During the early 1950's consideration was given to converting the Subway to dual-mode bus operation using electrical power while operating in the subway and diesel power while operating on the streets. |
 | | Penn Station is an interesting Art Deco-era multi-modal facility which, in addition to the City Subway, supports New Jersey Transit commuter rail, Amtrak long distance trains, the PATH rapid-transit line to New York City, and local, regional and national bus services (NJ Transit, Greyhound, and other private operators). |
