North River Tunnels

Susquehanna Transfer was a passenger station on the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway, located in North Bergen, New Jersey located at what today is the Route 495 overpass. It was an interchange station where transfer was possible from the railroad to a bus through the Lincoln Tunnel to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown Manhattan. The station opened on August 1, 1939, 1,100 feet (340 m) south of the old North Bergen station. At the time, the company was in bankruptcy proceedings, as part of the also bankrupt Erie Railroad. The buses were leased from the Public Service Bus Company and were open only to NYS&W passengers transferring to them. The bus fare was 15 cents. The buses allowed commuters to go directly to Midtown Manhattan, rather than taking the train to the Pavonia Terminal over the Erie Railroad's tracks and then taking an Erie RR ferry across to Lower Manhattan.The Erie Railroad also used the transfer station for trains on its Northern Branch, at least through 1957, with an agreement with the NYS&W to use their buses in 1944.Connecting train / bus service at the site ended in 1966.
