Erie Platform Steps

Erie Platform Steps

By 1910 The Hudson & Manhattan had completed its tunnels under the Hudson River. To provide access to this new link between New York City and New Jersey the Erie installed steps that led to a concourse that fed to a station on the H&M at Pavonia Avenue. The actual H&M Station was 3/4 of a mile away from the Erie's Jersey City Terminal. Use this Platform as a center bridge between my two platforms for The Jersey City Terminal. Access to the H&M now Path thus is not as convienant as these steps might suggest. You walked after you went downstairs. They had moving pedestrian walkways and train boards in the basement. As stated before most Erie Commuters were unwilling to pay extra fare to use H&M when a ferry ride was included in the rail fare. There were crossovers nearby to allow steam locomotives to cut away from the passenger cars and back out and go to the turntable leaving the coaches at the platform
the Jersey City Terminal is a stub ended terminal at the foot of the Hudson River.
