Train Schedules Available Via Text Message

NJ Transit unveils new feature.

Starting Wednesday, NJ Transit rail customers will be able to access train schedules using text messages.

Customers can send text a station-to-station request (i.e.: Trenton to NY Penn) to 266266 and CooCoo, a third-party text engine company, will respond with the next scheduled trains as a list of menu options.

For more information, text the letter of the menu option, and CooCoo will respond with details, including fares and travel time and real-time information. To receive train schedules for the next morning, include a time in the text (i.e.: Trenton to NY Penn 7 a.m.).
