I used to "ride" the Pony Express from Rahway and it would originally drop you off right at the back admission gate at Monmouth Park. In those days it was great to relax on a train and not have to fight the summer shore traffic. (and when the track cleaned me out at least I didn't need 2 quarters for the Garden State Parkway tolls....yeah it used to be a quarter at each toll back in the day)
