NJ Transit Light Rail schedules available via text

NJ TRANSIT Executive Director James Weinstein has announced the latest in a series of enhancements to provide customers with on-the-go schedule information. "My Light Rail," modeled after the agency's popular "My Bus" system, enables customers to obtain schedule information quickly and conveniently via text message for the 61 light rail stations throughout the state. "As part of our ongoing effort to use technology to improve the way customers access travel information, My Light Rail literally puts schedule information at the fingertips of any customer who has the ability to send a text message," said Weinstein. Newark Light Rail, Hudson-Bergen Light Rail and River Line customers may now text their five-digit light rail station ID to 69287 and My Light Rail will respond via text message with the times for the next scheduled trips that serve that light rail station.
