Looking for a little information on the CNJ station on West Side Avenue in Jersey CIty. Was service stopped on this line when the bridge over the Hackensack was damaged? When was the station demolshed. Thanks.
I cannot provide a date, but Dad brought me on the train that ran between Communipaw and West Side Avenue when it was a mere shuttle or scoot, after the bridge was lost. My memory, perhaps faulty, is that the camel-back led west. Returning, a trainman gave signals from the "rear" vestibule by the air hose. We went under Jackson Avenue, without a grade crossing! I would never have imagined the present service, one-person, low-floor, proof-of-payment. No camel-backs.
