A 53-year-old man was struck and killed by a New Jersey Transit train in Bernardsville on Saturday, police said. The incident occurred just before 2 p.m. as the train was adjacent to Fox Hollow Trail, east of downtown, police said. The train, on the Gladstone Branch of the Morris and Essex Line, had just left Basking Ridge and was heading west toward Bernardsville, according to New Jersey Transit officials.

Bernardsville police said the man was from the Somerset Hills area, but did not release his name Saturday as his family had not yet been notified. There was only one customer aboard the train, and neither the passenger nor any of the crew were injured, transit officials said. Rail service along the Gladstone Branch was suspended Saturday in both directions between Stirling and Bernardsville while the incident remained under investigation. Officials said buses would accommodate customers.

There was 'ONE' passenger on the train ! How much does that train cost to operate? Why is NJTRANSIT PANYNJ a money pit? Raise the tolls, raise the fares....
