| Description: |
WPCA51 heading north with a light engine after dropping 3 paper roll loads at International Paper in Barrington... Hard to believe looking at it now, but the Reading used to run 70mph trains through here on 3 tracks, including an interlocking and tower to control it all. There also used to be 2 trolleys tracks to the right of the black fence during that time. (Note the typical Reading concrete retaining wall below the fence) Amazingly though, the station behind me is still there along with its freight house across the street, which I believe are the only two station/freight house buildings still around together and in their original locations in New Jersey. Also, the ancient pedestrian walkover bridge in the distance is still open and used daily. |
