Anyway, I have a question- is the station in downtown Englewood the same one you listed under "Northern Branch"?

Main: I did some research and came up with the following information about Englewood.

The Englewood Station on the Northern Branch was located at MP 13.9 from Jersey City. It was a two track freight and passenger station with station house on both side. By 1959 the northbound track had been removed and all trains were using the former southbound track in both directions.

By 1966 the station house on the east side had been removed and converted into a parking lot. A 1966 photo shows single track and platform still in use. The station house now includes a “Stix and Stones” which may have been a local restaurant. Across the street on the west side is an “American” gas station.

This information comes from “Erie Railroad Facilities In Color” (Morning Sun Books / 2006) by Mr. Robert J. Yanosey
