When was the CNJ's Communipaw waterfront yard abandoned? Was it just at the Aldene plan in 1967 or did they still use the facilities after the Aldene plan?
Looking at historic aerials web site everything is there in 1966 but the next year I can flip to is 1979 and while the buildings are there, the track areas are all mud.
Absolutely amazing the magnitude of the place in the 1950s. More trackage and rail cars than you can count. The word "massive" doesn't even describe it.
Today nothing there but trees and Libery State Park. The CNJ roundhouse has been obliterated by the Liberty Science place.
