Northern Branch — Englewood to Northvale

NJ · Englewood → Northvale

The old Erie Railroad's Northern Branch through Bergen County, from Englewood through Tenafly, Cresskill and Demarest up to Northvale. CSX ran freight here until it stopped service in May 2025. The rails are still down for about 8 miles. CSX still owns the line, and live freight track starts at Englewood.

⚠️ Before you go: every railroad on this map is private property. A line that looks abandoned may still be owned by a railroad, used to store rail cars, or put back into service at any time — sometimes with no warning. Before going near any track, make sure it's truly abandoned (no recent use, rails not polished, no signals or cars stored on it) and that you're allowed to be there. Never assume a track is dead.
