Description
Middletown/Town Of Wallkill, NY
Westbound Port Jervis Line train 75 is approaching Middletown NY station, one of two stations named "Middletown" served by trains operated by NJ Transit (the other a municipality in southern New Jersey).
The operating arrangement between New Jersey Transit and MTA Metro North is a bit complicated, but necessary given that the line originates in New Jersey but the ridership is New York State residents. Metro North owns locomotives and railcars built to New Jersey Transit's standards (and usually purchased as tack-ons to NJT orders), which is contributed to a shared equipment pool. NJ Transit provides the crews and maintains the trains. Metro North owns and maintains the stations and rents the tracks from Norfolk Southern.
