On the evening of January 7th, 2025, New Jersey Transit’s Conrail Heritage GP40PH-2B #4208, leading Pascack Valley Line train 1627, idles at the station in Oradell, New Jersey as disembarking commuters make their way home. Oradell, New Jersey. Oradell Station was opened in March of 1870 with the opening of the Hackensack and New York Extension Railroad which extended the original line from Anderson Street to Hillsdale. The depot now houses "America The Beautiful Flags & Flagpoles", Bergen County's first full service flag & flagpole company.
Photos of the Pascack Valley Line. This railroad was built as the New Jersey and New York RR, falling under the control of Erie, Erie Lackawanna, Conrail and NJDOT before present passenger operator New Jersey Transit and freight carrier Norfolk Southern.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
