    I enjoyed this very much. I was working in Moorestown, and attended Rutgers Camden. I bought my first railroad set at Pennsauken "Mall". Early 70s.

    Great collection !! I have several photos from the "Back Road" line from Camden to Mt. Holly from 30+ years ago. Several include stuff that isn't there any longer....
    Like a GP-15 up on the plate girder bridge at "Dead Man's Curve" in Moorestown. Another is of end cab switchers over the A.C. line in Pennsauken. Those rails were still in place & serving the lumber yard at Cove Rd. at the time.
    Me & my brother both witnessed a derailment just outside of that lumber yard. The engine skipped the rails (rear trucks) and went right back up onto the rails- thereby pulling the 1st boxcar behind it off the rails......weird. But true !!

      You wouldn’t happen to have any photos of the Rich Bros coal towers at 36th St in Pennsauken?

      Or any info on the older businesses in the industrial park? I’m sorry I’m desperate the forums and chat rooms have not delivered what I’m looking for.

    i don't know about others but to me trains are a very weird combination of such sad dystopic ugliness they look they crawled straight from orwell's 1984, and the inexplicable beauty in it.even passenger trains excluding bullet trains follow this very same pattern. it's such an uniform pattern it really looks like the railroading industry alltogether wants to look bad=D
