There's a request for a photo here but I don't quite understand what is being asked for. The article seems to be pretty well covered with nice pictures already. [[User:Adicarlo|Adam Di Carlo]] ([[User talk:Adicarlo|talk]]) 17:21, 18 April 2009 (UTC) |

I'm not sure if this statement is entirly true "The lane operates weekday mornings between 6:15 and 10:00 a.m., accommodating approximately 1,700 buses and '''62,000 commuters''', mainly to the Port Authority Bus Terminal.The XBL carries more trans-Hudson commuter trips into midtown Manhattan each day than any other mode, '''including commuter rail into Penn Station'''." |

I've found that on [http://www.thinkswiss.org/documents/01-Andreski-NJT-02102009.pdf|this pdf by PANYNJ] that yearly NJT ridership to penn station was 46 million, that divided by 365, then again divided by two (for morning and evening commute) is just over '''63,000''' commuters. Also from NJ.com they said that NJT ridership to NYP was about [http://www.transithell.com/commute/2006/11/nj-transit-riders-to-get-new-entrance-at-ny-penn-station/|'''70,000''']. |
|||
I'm not going to say that NJT definetly carries more cummuters than the XBL, but that right now the information on both XBL and NJT ridership is not up-to-date engough to say that one is more efective than the other. |

I recomend the statement ''The XBL carries more trans-Hudson commuter trips into midtown Manhattan each day than any other mode, including commuter rail into Penn Station.'' be changed to ''The ridership on the XBL is about the same as New Jersey Tranits commuter rail into Penn Station.'' |

XBL capacity error?
I'm not sure if this statement is entirly true "The lane operates weekday mornings between 6:15 and 10:00 a.m., accommodating approximately 1,700 buses and 62,000 commuters, mainly to the Port Authority Bus Terminal.The XBL carries more trans-Hudson commuter trips into midtown Manhattan each day than any other mode, including commuter rail into Penn Station."
I've found that on pdf by PANYNJ that yearly NJT ridership to penn station was 46 million, that divided by 365, then again divided by two (for morning and evening commute) is just over 63,000 commuters. Also from NJ.com they said that NJT ridership to NYP was about 70,000.
I'm not going to say that NJT definetly carries more cummuters than the XBL, but that right now the information on both XBL and NJT ridership is not up-to-date engough to say that one is more efective than the other.
I recomend the statement The XBL carries more trans-Hudson commuter trips into midtown Manhattan each day than any other mode, including commuter rail into Penn Station. be changed to The ridership on the XBL is about the same as New Jersey Tranits commuter rail into Penn Station. --Mannybrown1 (talk) 19:11, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
