Not sure which quarry and which road you are talking about, especially since there are several quarries in the Bloomingdale/Riverdale/Pompton Lakes area.
The NYS&W main runs basically parallel to Hamburg Tpk. from Butler, through Bloomingdale and Riverdale. In Riverdale the main crosses Hamburg Tpk. and the Pequannock River. Still paralleling Hamburg Tpk the main goes past the Tilcon Quarry in Riverdale. It then passes under I-287 and crosses the former EL Greenwood Lake Branch near the Passaic Crushed Stone quarry in Pompton Lakes at Pompton Jct. The Greenwood Lake Branch is now owned by the NYS&W and is known as the Pompton Industrial Track. It runs from the quarry south through Riverdale and into Pequannock.
Hope this helps!
