Too bad that profile is not bigger and in more detail. If you could see the entire document you would find that several other branch lines are shown that way. One is the Cowanesque Valley which ran west off the Fall Brook near Lawrenceville. Like the U&D, it was a single-track line through the hills and was lightly used in later years.
