NJ TRANSIT enhanced rail weekday schedules effective Monday, March 23 are available on the NJ TRANSIT website.
Sent: 7:48 PM

From the web site:
Important Note: Beginning Monday, March 23rd, NJ TRANSIT will enhance its weekday rail schedule to ensure additional areas of NJ maintain service. Rail service will operate on a Presidents Day holiday schedule with some enhancements. Weekday service on the Atlantic City Rail Line (ACRL), will continue to operate on a regular weekday schedule. Please refer to the Presidents Day schedules in printed timetables for more information.

The schedule links are here:
https://www.njtransit.com/sa/sa_servlet ... entId=9792
Note that NJT hasn't indicated whether Level 1 or Level 2 applies. I think we had level 2 over the weekend and will have Level 1 on weekdays.
