The map is incorrect. There was never a direct connection from Hoboken to the Northern Branch. In the last few years of passenger service, when trains terminated at Hoboken, they had to make a reverse move using a section of the old Erie Main Line. For example a southbound Northern train would run into the Erie tunnel, reverse up the Main Line almost 2 miles (using the former Main Line route to Erie terminal), and then go forward again using the Main Line's connection to Hoboken. This awkward move was a significant factor in the decision to discontinue passenger service. (The same move would have been necessary for Susquehanna trains, which had run to Erie terminal but never ran to Hoboken.) I would fix the map if I knew how.

The Nyack and Northern ran all the way to Sparkill. It came downgrade from Piermont to Sparkill, not reaching the same level as the Erie until the crossing at Orangeburg Road, where it joined into the end of the Northern. Thus, I undid a small change. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JoeBrennan ( talk • contribs) 21:28, 20 January 2011 (UTC)
So, does that make this a Northern Branch station? Jim.henderson ( talk) 00:26, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
Among the many other mispresentations in this article (the most glaring being that the Northern Branch starts in Jersey City) is that the incorrect template (showing service continuing from Pavonia to Hoboken) a list of stations where the line does not stop. It is a diagram of historical stops on the line, and as such should be placed in the that section. To include it in the lede is to infer that trains still call at them and that is is deceptive and confusing. Djflem ( talk) 07:06, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello, people. Recently, I noticed that only few of the stations have articles attached with them, so I was wondering if we should make articles for these. Kind regards, M R T R A I N S 2 2 7 22:24, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
