HBLR light rail

This is a tough one, I love the Newark Light Rail, it's really conveniant for be seeing as I go to school here, the HBLR is a fantastic system from what I've heard (I've only used it once though), and the RIVERLine is a wonderful system connecting a serious of small towns between Trenton and Camden that keeps with their small town character.

Gotta love your passion for trains! I'd be curious as to how many people have actually even ridden all three systems? I've only ridden HBLR and it was quite good.

I have photographed all the Newark and HBLR stations and plan to do a few Riverline stops...

I heard the Riverline is very smooth?

I've ridden all three. HBLR countless times, NWK at least a few (4-5 years ago I used the City Subway line almost daily for a couple of months), and the River Line only once.

I like the HBLR for the views. The River Line schedule is really really limited because there's freight operation at night.
