And as far as I know, NJT did build their new dispatching theatre at The ROC" to be able to dispatch the NEC from SSYD to 30th St, as was the plan. (I think it would have involved keeping the old theatre in Hoboken Terminal up and running to continue to dispatch the NJT lines, but im not certain)The ROC is capable of handling the dispatching between SSY and Morrisville if I'm not mistaken. It wouldn't even require the Hoboken Theater (we're in America buddy, what's a theatre? ) to still be operational. All the monitors and desks are there, they just are set to view only currently.
To loosely quote Capt. Jack Aubrey from the movie Master and Commander: "NJT runs a railroad, not a private yacht! WE DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR YOUR DAMNED HOBBIES, SIR!"
