New Jersey Hudson-Bergen Light Rail Ride from Hoboken to Bergenline Avenue (January 14, 2022)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
- I take a ride on New Jersey Transit's Hudson-Bergen Light Rail line for the first time from Hoboken Terminal to the Bergenline Avenue Station, at the border of Union City and West New York. The ride was much quicker than I thought, and it was run very efficiently.

OMG, this is too funny! After I've left Liberty State Park, I also took the New Jersey Transit's Hudson-Bergen Light Rail line to the Bergenline Avenue Station in Union City. When I arrived at the station, I did not realize how deep the elevator was, I was so worried that this wonderful man came with me to the ground level and than I walked to the hostel in Union City. Thank you Actionkid, this was wonderful!👍👍
DID YOU KNOW Bergenline is the only stop on in the HBLR system with an underground platform. Located 160 feet below ridge of the Hudson Palisades in the former Weehawken Terminal tunnel of the West Shore Railroad, it is reached by elevators traveling from street-level entrances located just north of busbays.
Yes, I read about that station after I had some free time. It makes sense that it's underground since it's so elevated there.
Man the light rail is my favorite part of going to Jersey you can't get this kind of ride in NYC
Yep, no light rail in NYC!
Would you say light rail is better than the subway 🤔 ride? I live in Richmond Virginia and we have neither I wish we did though , I visited Newark and I rode the subway to Manhattan that's the only one time I road on a subway never been on light rail.
@@Classy4514Yeah the subway is Called the Path train and it’s more fast for NY travelers. The Light Rail is calm and a little more slower and connects the neighborhoods to the Path trains and NJ transit to travel anywhere in the East coast
@@Classy4514 less steps going up and down lol
You can go to the Newark library and there may have pictures of the old "city subway" rail cars from 1935, before they bought in the new light rail cars in 2006.
I like living in NJ the old fashion look is still present in some cities Like East Orange and Brick township going all the way to Madison , Mountainside.
@@shirlspark_stardust Yeees.
Excellent
2006? They’re were brought in between 2001 trough 2002.
@@Maunico0809 They weren't bought in that early, I used to take the "City subway" to Penn Station from Branchbrook Park, back in 2001-2002. I was working for the TSA then.
Thank you for taking us along , I hardly ever use mass transits but I enjoy it with you , too many sketchy people , be safe xoxo
My pleasure!
I love the Hudson Bergan Light Rail (HBLR) The scenes are nice, it is clean and on time. Nice Ride!
It works well!
This brings back fond memories. I worked across the street from the Port Imperial Ferry, in Weehawken NJ. The area is beautiful and It is a 5 minute boat ride to NYC. 🥰
Excellent! I'll have to ride that ferry sometime
I love train rides! Great views! Smooth ride! Great to see this through your eyes!
Very smooth experience riding this train!
The journey is interesting...thank you Ken
Never been to either New Jersey or New York. I'd like to visit and these videos of yours gives me a good prospective of this area. Thanks!
Nice train / Light Rail ride and because i like the train rides , these are an extra enjoyable to me !!! And for the just that seeing the sceneries along the way is great !! Thank you for sharing AK , i appereciate this kind of content 👍!!!
Same here! I like train rides and exploring too!
Nice one! I haven’t been on the light rail in years. Thanks for bringing back some memories.
Much appreciated
@@ActionKid ❤
I'm from a generation with no light rail this is actually amazing for my city if this was around when I was a kid bikes would have been a forgotten thing lol I would probably weigh twice as much too
12:06 looks super Eerie and is exactly what i pictured new jersey to be like
Action - I'm sure you're always looking for places to go. Since you're doing trains here and there, check out Union Station in Washington DC. It's huge and there's a lot to see and do. You take an Amtrak from penn station and you're there in like 3 hours.
Definitely a good idea!
Awesome 👍 light rail train ride!! Now I know more about New Jersey!
3:23 We are officially brothers now, we have clocks that are off an hour ahead in both our areas 😂
Very cool!
@@ActionKid Yeah, haha!
The first section of the entire network of that Light Rail system opened in Jersey City in 1999. At the time it only ran from West Side Avenue to downtown Jersey City and from there to Newport Center Mall. Nothing else had been built yet. I don't even believe the Hoboken connection had been completed yet. Anyway, I lived in Jersey City at the time and rode it almost for kicks... certainly not because it saved travel time or anything over what the local bus lines and certainly the PATH train could do. Nowadays, riding the full length from Bayonne to Bergenline Avenue is probably the best way of getting from one end to the other comfortably, reliably and at low cost. I don't live in that area anymore, so I can only make that speculation based upon other end-to-end travel videos I have seen posted.
Very cool! I'm going to have to ride it to Bayonne and the West Side Avenue section of Jersey City sometime.
@@ActionKid Go for it!
What a gorgeous afternoon in Hoboken and such a pretty place . I would pay the fair $100 find is a bit steep . That rail is very fast I like it. 👍 Thanks for the ride loved the experience and the view . Safe travels AK I love your city.💛🍎👍
Yes, a steep fine for evading the fare
Feel like I'm ur travel companion which would be pretty cool I guess !!! I really appreciate that ,man!!! Thank u for that !!!
I did not know the light rail had any underground sections. Interesting. Just as you thought you knew everything about this system, you learn something.
Thank you for sharing! Super helpful. Has given me confidence to try.
The train is so cozy Thank you actionkid for sharing
Thanks @actionkid...Great job spotting NJ City.
I’ve never taken the light rail. Been a NJ resident for several years. I’m hire familiar with the NJ transit trains however to Hoboken & Secaucus. Thanks for the video! Btw, the ferries are fun to ride.
You should ride the Newark and River Line light rails next; the River Line is America's first diesel light rail.
On certain occasions, the Newark rail will bring out the old 1935 city subway cars. I remember riding on those cars prior to these new cars.
You are a very brave young man to do what you do., Thank You!
The way you film and take shots of details makes ne feel in there. Great work. Carry on like this style
Great Video! Would Love to Ride this One Day.
Another Great Stream. You explore so many new places that are so interesting! And we learn things nobody ever realized before! 👍
I also get to learn new things too! It was very pleasant riding this train.
Wow NJ transit light Rail looks pretty cool. I have only been on path to Hoboken and back to the city
I would not had known to stamp the ticket
I wish NJ transit implemented OMNY and we can have a seamless experience in the region
What's up ,AK!Hanging out with ya and binge watch your walks which are really must see !!!
Always wanted to drive these trains..
I wanna go to this park in Hoboken to see the late Mr.Frank Sinatra because of you.
I didn't know you could bring bikes inside the train wow.
Never been to "Light Rail" before in New Jersey, either going to New York City too.. maybe someday I'll be visit there and doing a vlog for the first time :p
Hoboken to 8th street(Bayonne)
Hoboken->Newport->HRRISMUA COVE->harbor side financial center->Essex street->Marin Blvd->Jersey Ave->Liberty State Park->Richard Street->Danforth Ave->45th street->34th street->22nd street->8th street
You have to take that rail to Bayonne. The changes in Jersey City is crazy$$$$. I remember when that place was a dump and there is more development to come.
This is so cool!
Thanks for the google maps link…see you next time….take care.
Thank you for sharing! 👍🙋
I put your show on in the background and was like, "What's that". Public Safety should be a priority and that is the #1 reason why I don't use public transportation anymore. With the amount of money spent on the "Homeless Crisis" there should be resources in place so that individuals can get the help they need. No commuter should have to deal with someone who is high or coming down off drugs or whatever. I really did used to ride the trolley and bus everyday, until I was attacked and no one came to help. The cops didn't even show. Be careful out there!
That was a smooth ride...
Great video wish the light rail was there when I lived up there.
Thanks for the nice ride.
Always fun to be on the road with you
I moved to NJ a few years back from NYC and I have been to union city and Jersey city and Kearny by rail and bus I passed through there last year cool video
Walking tour wonderful my friend thank you for sharing
Have a good ride ,Ken!!!
Is the light rail extended or still have two trains connected
Good to Know 💗🐈⬛
Hi 👋 from Russia 🇷🇺 …..
(Moscow City 🌆) …..
Thanks and keep sharing your videos 🙂
Action Kid, you can also take this to Bayonne, Jersey City Westside
Nice ride on the light rail! Have you been to the Asbury Park boardwalk on the Jersey Shore? Think you would like walking around AP. Nice train ride from Hoboken to Asbury Park.
Congress Street is Jersey City, the Heights section; then. you passed the Viaduct which leads down into Hoboken, I think 14th Street. Then after that it appears you went up into Weehawkin the Lincoln Harbor, which is by the Lincoln Tunnel entrance. Tonnelle Avenue is west of the Hudson River. Did you get some good Cuban food when you got out on Bergenline?
I think there’s a man on there that must have bad anxiety. Thank you for moving. I am uncomfortable when other people are comfortable. Thank you for the cool ride. Have a good day AK
I was wondering about the sound too!
Asthmatic wheezing??
Thanks, thought it was just me hearing things
Action Kid, do any of the New Jersey light rail trains go into Grand Central Station or Pennsylvania Station?
No. Only Heavy rail commuter trains go to NY Penn, unless you're talking about Newark Penn which the Newark Lightrail terminates at Newark Penn Station. No New Jersey train or light rail go to Grand Central.
Action Kid, Tonnelle Ave is the last stop on this train.
I use to live in Union city for many years before the light rail 🚈. I do not know that a light rail was running to Hoboken. I remember those buildings you need three things money money money
another top video , are these light rail automated or his there a driver on board. they are fairly fast form of transport, very clean, seems reasonable price for the tickets.
Hi. There is a driver on board.
Thank you
I love the light rail. I call it the trolley. 🙂 🚎
Would be awesome in 360°. Ridin’ the rails
Hey you should do bergenline to west side ave, I’m trusting you it is going to be fun of how beautiful the view is
Lol @ActionKid, I used to take the light rail everyday and the time stamp was NEVER right and that was years ago! (3:53)
Who making that noise sound like a grizzly bear
Probably crazy eyes in the back
sounds like something from Resident Evil
How much does it cost
NYC❤
Should one day take the Acela line I think that would be really cool.
you should do a PATH train ride from hoboken to 33rd st
8:28 you can see MTA buses on the window reflection
Action kid i love you so much you make each video so real its like im hanging out with u i love you calm and cool demeanor we would make good friends i also love exploring different cities im a Pisces ♓️ whats your zodiac sign ?
NJ transit should extend it to Newark, Elizabeth and Paterson.
That would be nice!
I think there’s one overthere
@@MrMlbfan6 yes, Newark has its own light rail lines. A rail connection between the 2 cities isn’t really necessary because the PATH serves that purpose
The Hudson/Bergen Line doesn't actually extend into Bergen County. It was originally planned to end in Englewood, NJ but the NIMBYies in Bergen County have been blocking it for many years now. The Bergen County people don't want the Hudson County people to have easy access to their towns. When the GWB was constructed the original plan was to extend the A Train across the bridge into Fort Lee, again it was blocked by Bergen County. For years there has been talk of extending the 7 train across the Hudson to the Meadowlands, again the idea gets shot down by Jersey every time it comes up.
@@MrSloika comparing the extension of the 7 line to extension of the HB light rail and the proposed rail lines over the GW, doesn’t make any sense. The reason why the 7 extension plan was rejected is because it would’ve been part of a plan to relocate the PA Bus Terminal over to Jersey (Secaucus Junction) and have Manhattan bound bus passengers disembark and transfer to the 7. No one who rides the bus would want to take a bus to Manhattan if it doesn’t go all the way to Manhattan. With the peak hour bus only Lanes at Lincoln tunnel exit, it only takes a few minutes to get to Manhattan from Secaucus exit on the turnpike. The 7 would make stops in Hoboken and Hudson Yards before it got to 42nd st and be a longer, more tedious ride
You do such an amazing job with the walking video, why not to mix with short aerial view clips... I'm people will be found of
What is the moaning at around 4:00?
Weird sound scary
usually there isnt anyone to check your ticket so you probably didnt need to pay
If someone is checking tickets, you make believe you’re asleep and no one bothers you, at least that’s what I saw.
5:00 OK, somebody is dying
Hoboken is a town near Antwerp, Belgium
17:39 *accidentally shows face*
what was wrong with that screaming person?
Wow...who or what is making those weird breathing sounds at the start
Action Jackson that's not very nice. The poor man has got asthmatic breathing problems. I couldn't believe you did just got up and run away. Made the man Feel disabled and unwanted you terrible man..
The person could have asthma or could have covid. ActionKid is an adult and doesn't have to subject himself to any problems or situations he doesn't want to.
AK ! Run!
