I understand there was a program to eliminate level crossings during the '30's...the most spectacular, probably, at Cranford, with the high station and bridges eliminating such crossings in that town. Specifically, do any of you remember the elimination of the level crossing at Garwood during the '60's? My mother had her '54 Dodge stall on the level crossing, with me (10 yrs old) and my brother (8 yrs) being dragged out of the car; this was in 1954, when major traffic made such an occurance a real danger! The gatekeeper got the car started and cleared of the tracks.
When was this program conceived, and finally abandoned, due to abandonment of reasonably major traffic on this line? Sam
