Train to ScionVIP Campout: 8/9-8/10..UPDATED 8/6 TIME CHANGE
I'm pumped, never been to the campout before. I am planning the train early to get as many people aboard as possible. Time will be determined at a later date, as I don't see what time the fun begins up there.
First stop will be the Lansdale northeast extension exit on 476.
is exactly where I will depart from on the map, as well as where to meet me.
Here is a picture of where to meet me:
Second stop, will be the first service/rest area on NJTP. (Woodrow Wilson Service Area)
See
for exactly where this rest area is on the NJTP.
Here is a picture of where to meet in the lot:
*Update!* 7/17/08
Third stop is going to be the Grover Cleveland Service Area/Rest Area on NJTP.
...Please note that it is not the Thomas Edison service area, as the Thomas Edison service area is on the southbound side, Grover Cleveland is northbound. Thanks!
is a link to WHERE the exact location is.
Here is a picture of where to meet in the parking lot.
_____________________________________________________________
*Update!* 7/16/08
The route we will take is outlined below...if anyone has any better ideas or ways around construction, delays, etc. please post up and we'll work it out. GPS ftw.
PA NE Extension Southbound to PATP Eastbound to NJTP Ext. Eastbound to NJTP Northbound toward NY to 95 Northbound which takes us over the Tappan Zee Bridge.
If you are able to meet us on the way there, and it isn't too much of a hassle to get you in on the train, PLEASE post in this thread and we'll work something out. More possible stops on the NJTP/95 include the following rest areas (but not limited to), please let us know if you would like to join in on the train.
-Vince Lombardi Service Area (Near Ridgefield Borough, NJ, also seen below)
-Joyce Kilmer Service Area (Near East Brunswick, NJ)
______________________________________________________
UPDATE!! 8/6/2008
Instead of pushing back the time that I leave, as well as the rest of you (by much)...the times are shifted by 5 minutes for each stop, accumulating. Pay attention to what time you have to be there. We are waiting 15 minutes at each stop, hopefully less to allow the extra time to go over the Tappan Zee Bridge versus the GWB.
We will now be taking the Tappan Zee Bridge, not the GWB.
Times are posted as follows below, please post comments and concerns as well as suggestions.
1st Stop: 10:00am. Depart 10:10am.
----I will be waiting on the right hand side as indicated in the picture above after the toll booth on the Lansdale interchange at 10:00am
2nd Stop: Meet at 11:10 am. Depart at 11:25am
----Approx an hour later (11:10am) we will arrive at the 2nd stop indicated
. We will then depart from this location at 11:25am, hopefully eliminating the risk of time delays, etc. Also allowing time for breakfast, gas, etc.
3rd stop: Meet at 12:20pm. Depart at 12:35pm
----Approx. 50 minutes later (12:20pm) we will arrive at our 3rd stop indicated
. At approximately 12:35pm we will depart and head for our final destination, SCION VIP CAMPOUT 2008 B!TCHES!!!! Arrive around 2:00pm for roll-in.
If you want to leave earlier to reserve spots, etc etc. let me know and we can adjust times accordingly.
_____________________________________________________________
For those of you taking route 80, we could meet up at the Vince Lombardi Service Area seen
.. Only a few miles for you guys to backtrack
Any possible stops I would like to keep on the interstate, to reduce confusion of getting off and then back on.
Walkie Talkies are RECOMMENDED, not REQ'd. I will give my cell number to everyone following behind me in case of emergencies, or anything else that comes up.
Rollcall b!tches!

The rest stop would probably be the best bet, unless you want to pull over at the KOP rest area that is closed and wait for us to get there. Either way, walkie talkie and cell # will be given out to everyone in case there's a problem.

NJTP to 95 North. Exit 10 being I guess what would be the Phoenix exit, just north of New Brunswick?? If so, meet us at the Thomas Edison Service Area, which is the first service area North of exit 10.
Here's directions. Hopefully that's the right exit 10.
