Looks like they were heading into Pleasantville when the derailment occured. NBC reports last car of train derailed, while Press says last 4.

Is that on NJT tracks, SRNJ owned tracks, or industrial tracks?

From the photos and article it appears this was on the SRNJ's Pleasntville Branch. (The bridge over the expressway is just beyond were it branches off the ac line).

Hopefully the bridge itself isn't too badly damaged, since it seems like the Pleasantville line has almost all the remaining industries on the SRNJ, i believe the Vineland line only has one.

They don't have business on the Vineland. Just Pleasantville and for now, the Salem track since US Rail pulled out. They do, sometimes, have stone for the former Crows Foot plant (I believe H&K has it now) on the old CNJ in Folsom, just below Winslow Jct. CSAO and W&W handle Vineland area traffic.
