My frustration about the lack of development is aimed at the people, not the government. NJT did their part to build it...and the people just aren't there for it despite how good it could be. It's why I'm not getting my hopes up for the Camden-Gloucester line.

While it's nice to see more trains, NJ really doesn't seem to give a shit about developing around them.

The Riverline's been running for, what? 18 years now? It's still just a random train running through suburbia and you can barely get to anything from it because all the businesses are stacked against 130. There's Riverside's little downtown setup, and that's pretty much it between Trenton and Camden.

Over two years of these workers being remote shows that being in office is performative labor.

There is nothing "brave" about wasting workers' time and money on a commute that was done away with for over two years.
