A display at NJT Newark Shops preserves bus history. Note the
manufacturer logos of Eagle, MCI, Flxible, Grumman, GMC, and the garage
logos of: (clockwise from top) Orange, Big Tree, Newton Avenue (I am not
sure of this one), Market Street, Hilton, Washington Township, Madison
Avenue, Greenville, Howell, Fairview, and in the center, Mercer and
Meadowlands. (Not all garages are represented.) The fareboxes on the shelf
below include a little white one with the Public
Service logo on it. (Photo by Dave Mackey, 1998) |
Current listing of NJT garage facilities updated 4/18/2008. More information to
follow including garage history and predecessor garages.
A few years ago, NJT eliminated its Central division, but has since reinstated that designation for Big Tree, Hilton, Orange, Ironbound and Howell Garages.
