	Camden-Trenton River LINE Light Rail
		New Jersey Transit's River LINE (yes, the second word is officially all upper case) extends about 34 miles from Camden (across the Delaware river from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) to Trenton (the state capital).
		It is widely viewed as a political pork-barrel project, the result of southern New Jersey state legislators insisting that New Jersey Transit undertake some kind of major capital project in their area after building the Hudson-Bergen light rail line and other major projects in the northern part of the state.
		NJT first investigated a different corridor out of Camden that had much better ridership potential, but local opposition killed that project, and so NJT ended up with the more lightly-populated Delaware River corridor.
