Re: PC: P&H track chart



Hi Lon,

         I have a 1969 NJ Division track chart of the Passaic Branch and
the Harsimus Banch.
The Passaic Branch milepost "0" starts at WA-5 and goes to milepost "4"
at the Passaic River. From there it's 1859ft to Karny Tower.
        The Harsimus Branch is a little tricky. Milepost "0" is in
Manhatten and is numbered west to milepost "7" at the Center Street
Branch.
         I'll have to dig out my PRR and Conrail charts.

Lon:
Ok, this is where it is so confusing.
Harsimus Cove Yard is said to be on the P&H branch. I am curious as to 
what milepost the sixth street embankment is and what branch it is.
Unless it is considered 'yard limit' territory, but it branches off the 
P&H at Harrison (exchange place).
They are wanting to bulldoze the 6th street embankment and build condos.

A very confusing piece railroad this area is!

Thanx for any help.
Lon
