Conrail weekly local SA-31 passes over what once was the east switch of a passing siding; in November of 1953, CNJ train SJ-2 (on what was their Southern Division Main at the time) had a 21 car derailment at this exact spot, with a few boxcars climbing the embankment to the left.

Bob Krug General A good backstory. I was previously surmising that the catenary supports were ex-Pennsy, but I now infer it's ex-CNJ. 8/18/2013 7:26:07 AM
