The $2 trillion stimulus package passed by the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday reportedly includes a $1.25 billion bailout for New Jersey Transit (NJT), the full amount the company requested on March 19.

Amtrak and N.J. Transit are refreshing of the ticketed waiting area at New York Penn Station, the seating area for their customers at the Amtrak Concourse on the Upper Level and 8th Avenue side of the station.

N.J. Transit said it is upgrading River Line Light Rail Vehicle engines to improve fuel efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of operating the line.
