The abandonment from Jersey City to Newark was bad enough. The HBLR's branch to West Side Avenue runs on the Jersey City segment; they filled in the cut under MLK Drive (formerly Jackson Avenue) and created a grade crossing.The pipe dreamer in me dreamed about the Newark branch being extended west into Irvington and then turning southwest to connect with the Rahway Valley in Union. (That RVRR ROW over Morris Avenue and Vauxhall Road was torn down in the late 90s/early 2000s.) |
