2:53 is Bergen Jct. A then-new interlocking that connected the Lackawanna Boonton Line with the Erie line coming from Croxton and Jersey City. 3:17 is Pascack Jct. with HX drawbridge just barely visible in the distance. (ed. note: NJ&NY Jct.) 6:04 is Carlstadt. Station closed 1967 (per Wikipedia). 6:39 is Wood-Ridge-Moonachie. The station stop signed Hackensack was renamed Essex Street under NJ Transit.

Good to see the Pearl River NY station. I grew up in that 42:49 hamlet. Greetings from Port Saint Lucie Florida . happy Presidents Day 2024 !
I love these archived videos that show what it was back then. Great job, Railroad Media Archive. Thanks Robert
This is a great video. Coming from NY on ferry passing Colgate Palmolive in background.
Could watch this stuff all day, thanks!
Thank you for sharing. Very much enjoyed, and appreciate the time you have taken to post these wonderful videos of the EL.👍

I love this channel.
Amazing
Rode the line in the early 70's Spring Valley to Hoboken. Boonton cars first the stainless steel Santa Fe cars.
The track is in much better condition now
How fast did those commuter trains run?
According to a timetable from 1960 track speed was 60.
Some of those Alco’s made more smoke than a steam engine 😀
