The Long Forgotten Perth Amboy and Woodbridge Railroad and Jct
Posted by alloboard on Friday, February 26, 2010 10:58 PM
I am looking for information regarding the depot. I also know that the junction have existed there as early as 1832 or I might be wrong but some one from the forums earlier on told me that in 1895 it was a flat 2 to 4 track interlock plant. The 2 tracks was the Perth Amboy and Woodbridge RR which joined the 4 track PRR mainline. Today what was the 2 track Perth Amboy and Woodbridge RR now a 3 track New Jersey Transit that joins the what was the 4 track PRR now a 6 track Amtrak mainline via a flying junction. I am also looking for the plant which existed in 1895. I would die to find this information which I've been questing for years now. I you or anyone you know can find something I would deeply appreciate it.
