Is Columbus Day a holiday for NJ Transit trains?

Question

I am trying to figure out if I can take the train on Columbus Day 10/9/06. Does NJ Transit run on a holiday (sunday) schedule that day or is it a regular monday schedule?

It doesn't say on their site, so please don't direct me there.

Answer 1

If their union contract says it is, it is. Unions would make just about any day a (paid) holiday if they thought they could get away with it...

Answer 2

yes because it nationally reconized and the railroad is federal

Answer 3

Columbus Day is a national holiday. On national hoildays rail

services like NJ Transit will run but on a Sunday schedule. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

The NJ Transit website "DOES" say Columbus Day is a holiday. You should check out Train Schedules (Station to Station), which are provided for the current week only, for your travel on a specific date or trips.
