I think they do a job or two per month during night time hours. The line is still used though for sure because grade crossings are kept in shape and the line for such an old line is still in semi-good shape for the most part.
Imagine NJt decided it was going to be like the EL out of nowhere and reactiviated service over NX Draw and ran commuter train into Hoboken again through Nutley? It would require a complete rebuild of the line and the Boonton Line would have to be fixed up as well, but I can still dream
are the tracks still in place between schuyler avenue in kearny and the NYGL connection? Last time I was on route 7, it looked like they had been pulled, but I only had a quick look.
That could be a nice alignment for the light rail from Newark northward to Clifton, there's still a lot of light industry jobs etc along the route, even if few of them take rail anymore
