NJT stands for NJ Transit, a rail and transit abbreviation.
Statewide public transit agency of New Jersey, operating commuter rail to New York Penn Station and Hoboken, light rail and one of the largest bus systems in the US.
Example: NJT trains into Penn Station are delayed 30 minutes because of Amtrak signal problems in the tunnel.
Usage notes
Created in 1979. NJ Transit trains share the aging Hudson River tunnels with Amtrak, so problems there ripple across the system; the Gateway Program is building new tunnels. The agency's official name is written "NJ TRANSIT," and the abbreviation NJT appears in schedules and news.
