In addition, 11 of those inbound through trains are represented by an electric train north of Long Branch, and a diesel train south of that point. Likewise, 17 southbound through trains are presented by an electric train north of Long Branch, and a diesel train south of that point. Five of the inbound electric trains and four of the outbound electric trains use South Amboy as their southern terminus, while two of the inbound electric trains and one of the outbound electric trains uses Aberdeen-Matawan as their southern terminus. Weekend and holiday service is much more simple. 23 inbound and 24 outbound trains represent the full schedule, with three round trips to Hoboken, with the rest running to New York. of those, 18 inbound and 19 outbound trains are represented by both electric and diesel service. Passengers can transfer at Newark Penn Station or Secaucus Junction to reach the other destinations, if necessary. The line is only electrified north of Long Branch. Electrified operation began between Rahway and South Amboy on March 11, 1936. Electrification was extended to Matawan in 1983 and to Long Branch in 1988. Some diesel trains operate through to Hoboken (via the Waterfront Connection) or Newark. There are also Bay Head-Long Branch shuttles which connect to Long Branch-New York Penn Station electric trains.
