View from an Amtrak Coach seat overlooking the Manhattan Bridge and New York City skyline, with overlaid white text reading, \u201COfficially made it through a whole trip in the Quiet Car without talking on speakerphone. You never know how strong you truly are until being strong is your only choice.\u201D

It's the end of an era! History was made Friday night when the last ever train traveled over the Portal Bridge in New Jersey, officially ending decades of delays for Amtrak and @NJTRANSIT customers with the retirement of the 116-year-old bridge forever. And it’s fitting it was a NextGen Acela train, as it’s truly out with the old and in with the new.

Amtrak and NJ TRANSIT crews are already hard at work for the second and final “cutover” to put the second track into service on the new Portal North Bridge over the Hackensack River. Stay tuned for further updates on this exciting project!
