Two responses: * Uber is not substituting for public transport. It's replacing the "last mile" of suburban commuters driving to the local NJTransit station with a pool of drivers who can keep rolling throughout the day. * Uber replacing a mass-transit link (especially something like a train line into NYC) is unthinkable. The links for cars between NJ and NYC are already at or beyond capacity, and the planning is right now trying to drive commuters to use public transit when possible.
