[at-l] Section hikes: NJ --> Maine



Bill

The train is the Harlem Division of Metro North Commuter Line:
http://www.mta.nyc.ny.us/mnr/html/planning/schedules/sched_form.cfm.  It
terminates at Grand Central (a short subway ride from Penn Station).  There
is a train station right on the trail (the "AT Station") with weekend only
service. The "Harlem Valley-Wingdale" Station is north of the trail on Rt.
22 about 2-3 miles and Pawling is south about the same distance.  These have
service every day.  Pawling is the bigger town.  Transit time is around 1
hour 45 minutes.  The track closely parallels Rt. 22 here so a good road map
will show this area.
