Seems funny that they would abandon the Lodi Branch especially after putting the work into it on the other side of Rt 17.

And the pompton branch. I thoughty they still use it? The passaic branch, only tiem i see it used is when storing large strings of gondolas.

Thanks for this!

Maybe these abandoned branches will go to another shortline operator?

Is there traffic to justify someone getting it as a shortline? I really don't know, but I would assume it would be a tough road for someone.

the passaic branch has nobody. Lodi has nobody except the car repairs that get done there.
