The football trains seem to be a technical success, perhaps MNR will look to expend this service on a limited basis to see how the general public responds not just Jets and Giants fans.Not sure if that's the smartest / most fiscally-responsible idea. The present run from NHV-GCT is shorter and faster than NHV-NYP. What would running to NYP for a shopper's special gain you? The train would still terminate in the city, just 8 blocks further south. Sure, it'd be closer to Macy's, but that's about it. GCT is more in the heart of the city than NYP.
