Trains to Warminster & New Hope trackage

[1st Barnegat]

RDGAndrew is correct - the New Hope line is ex RDG. The station, still in use by the New Hope and Ivyland RR, is RDG-style. The NH&I even has Reading coaches in their consist.

Here'a a RDG system map:

At one time, the NH&I met with a 16-passenger bus from its western end near Lahaska that would take you into Lahaska and return. Made a great way to spend a day - two train rides and shopping in Lahaska. Would that they would bring it back.

This thread should never have been placed on the PRR forum to begin with. The New Hope branch is ex READING!

Just curious - not to stay off topic - but where were the bridge abutments built?
