It’s been a long time since a train ran through these parts. These tracks run through what is left of Atsion Village. I will have more photos of the remaining structures in other posts shortly.
I found reference of the Central Railroad of NJ and several other names as the land and railroad was purchased by several people over the years. Here is a link with detailed information about the railroads of the era. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Jersey_Southern_Railroad

Great photos. Favourite so far the bridge over the water. I like the different textures in this photo.
Thanks much! I really appreciate the comment. The bridge was a treat to find in the middle of the woods.
Can’t wait to see more. My Fav was the first picture…a long look down the tracks…should be framed !
Thanks Ruthie!
Great opening pic!
Thank you!
what its it about old RR tracks? Do they appeal to the hobo in each of us, wanting to hop a train and see where it takes us. I dont know, but I know I love the pic’s, fantastic and I agree, the first one should be framed.
I think it’s the adventurer in us that makes us want to hop aboard and see where it takes us.
I like looking down the tracks and how they meet at a small bright spot in the photo.
Thanks Cheryl!

Thanks G. I’m glad I could add to your joy!
