Jersey Central Lines

Description: 

The Central Railroad of New Jersey mainline crossed here between 1852 to 1976. The CRRNJ was the primary artery of travel to western cities by immigrants entering the United States at Ellis Island and contributed to the suburbanization to northern New Jersey. It was the first railroad to connect the Port of New York with the anthracite fields of Pennsylvania.
