Accessed September 19, 2021.</ref> The [[Northeast Corridor]], built in the 19th century by the [[Pennsylvania Railroad]] and now owned by Amtrak, carries [[NJ Transit]] trains, and passes through the city on the same alignment as the PATH. There was a stop on the Northeast Corridor in Harrison, but it was eliminated due to the ease of picking up trains in Newark at [[Pennsylvania Station (Newark)|Penn Station]]. Harrison is served by buses operated by several bus companies. [[NJ Transit]] offers service within New Jersey on the [[30 (New Jersey bus)|30]], [[40 (New Jersey bus)|40]] routes.<ref>[http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/bus/Hudson_County_Map.pdf Hudson County System Map] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170416093859/http://www.njtransit.com/pdf/bus/Hudson_County_Map.pdf |date=April 16, 2017 }}, [[NJ Transit]].
