Now that New Jersey Transit has token over the Clocker service from Amtrak, as of October 31, 2005, should the title of the page be changed, perhaps to Clocker (New Jersey Transit) and the exisiting page be shifted to a redirect? Alansohn 21:27, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
It would be either Clocker (Amtrak) or Clocker (passenger train). Right now I'm making an article at Northeast Corridor Line (which had redirected to Northeast Corridor) and mentioning the changes there. -- SPUI ( talk) 17:17, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
I've been working with Bruce Goldberg's otherwise comprehensive Amtrak: The First Decade and there's no mention of the Clocker name. Now, he does list train numbers 200 through 282 on the New York—Philadelphia route, but according to him as late as 1979 they didn't have a name (or at least weren't given a name in the timetables). Interestingly, he gives the end date for those trains as October 27, 1979; there's a number of new "named" trains appearing on October 28 (such as the Philadelphian or Manhattan Limited). Does anyone have a source clarifying the early history? Mackensen (talk) 02:45, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
