Princeton Branch
The
Princeton Branch
is a branch off of
New Jersey Transit
's
Northeast Corridor Line
. Also known as the
Dinky Line
, the branch is served by special shuttle trains. In
Princeton University
slang, the train is called the 'Dinky', hence the nickname of the line. ('Dinky' is a term for a small locomotive. The term is on face anachronistic, because the line is today served by an electric
multiple unit
coach, although the Federal Railroad Administration considers any power car to be a "locomotive.") NJ Transit has also considered using diesel multiple unit coaches on the line. The Princeton Branch provides rail service directly to the
Princeton University
campus. With the advent of
AirTrain
service between
Newark Liberty International Airport
and the
airport's NJ transit station
, it became possible to travel between the University campus and Newark Airport entirely by train (prior to AirTrain service, buses took passengers between
Newark Penn Station
and the airport).
