It is so named because its route between the two cities is parallel to the [[Delaware River]]. The River Line stops at the [[Port Authority Transit Corporation|PATCO]] Speedline's Broadway station ([[Walter Rand Transportation Center]]) and the [[NJ Transit]] [[Atlantic City Line]]'s [[Pennsauken Transit Center]], providing connections to [[Philadelphia]]. Its northern terminus is adjacent to the [[Trenton Transit Center]] in [[Trenton, New Jersey|Trenton]]. The line is operated for [[New Jersey Transit]] by the Southern New Jersey Rail Group (SNJRG), which originally included [[Bechtel]] and [[Bombardier Transportation]]. Now that the project is in its operational phase, Bombardier is the only member of SNJRG.<ref name="Bombardier">{{cite web |url=https://www.bombardier.com/en/media/newsList/details.bombardier-transportation20141001bombardierwinsnewoperationsandm.bombardiercom.html |title=Bombardier Wins New Operations and Maintenance Contract in New Jersey |author=<!--Not stated--> |date=October 1, 2014 |website=bombardier.com |access-date=May 10, 2018 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181106195704/https://bombardier.com/en/media/newsList/details.bombardier-transportation20141001bombardierwinsnewoperationsandm.bombardiercom.html |archive-date=2018-11-06 }}</ref> In 2021, [[Alstom]] acquired Bombardier Transportation.
