Is that on the south side of the tracks between Chester & CP-123 ?There's an overgrade bridge on Rte 20, which should be visible from the railroad. I think this branch was abandoned in the 30's. I wouldn't think it would be passible at all except for the ATV trail I see running southwest off Rte 20 near the roadway bridge.
