From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Atlantic City Express Service (ACES) is run by New Jersey Transit between New York, New York and Atlantic City, New Jersey, operating along the Northeast Corridor and Atlantic City Line. It runs over trackage that was controlled by both the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines. It shares trackage with SEPTA and Amtrak on the Northeast Corridor until it crosses the Delaware River on its own Delair Bridge into New Jersey. The Atlantic City Line also shares the right-of-way with the PATCO Speedline between Haddonfield and Lindenwold, NJ. There are 14 departures each day in both directions. Conrail also uses the line for freight movements (which are segregated) on small sections, including the NEC-Delair Bridge section to its main freight yard in Camden, New Jersey. However, the line does not have a "peak period" of additional fares during a weekday.
