We're sad to report that Ron Baile passed away on August 3, 2024 at the age of 76. His passion for both railroading and history -- which you can clearly see in this video -- will be greatly missed. www.njfuneralhome.net/obituaries/ronald-baile
thanks for a great show. the acme market in cape may was on washington st, where the victorian towers is today. not part of the mall. my grandmothers would take me to cape may on the train from camden broadway station, when i was really young. we changed in the bath houses. my paternal grandfather worked for the reading, and my maternal grandfather, and his brother(edward and charles perkins) worked out of cape may, then to camden. nj.
I was down near courthouse looking for a cape may train wreck i followed the old seashore lines that ran from cape may threw erma threw goshen swaiton all the way to bellplain the bed is still there
Always had a soft spot for S. Jersey railroading. Used to swim in the Maurice River & a childhood friend had a judge as a great grandfather, I believe, in the area down there. An area called Brotmanville was the result of that man's services to the judiciary of the area. Keep up the great exposure of railroading from days gone by in S. Jersey. Someone's gotta do it & I'm glad to know y'all are dedicated to it !! Such a worthwhile venture- don't let anybody ever tell you otherwise, eh ? Personally ? I would love to see a deep dive on "The Back Road" line- current day WPCA-20. Including all the changes over the years....like seeing an RS-11 delivering to Pittsburgh Plate Glass & the industrial area off of New Albany Rd., or passenger services on the old line thru Merchantville. God, just so much has changed over the years. I used to love pacing the train along Marne Hwy., watching them reversing up in Mt. Holly when the active line got reduced in mileage.... Boy, ya got the gears turnin' here. Break out some works from Frank Kozemple, if available !!! Thank you !! 🚬😎👍
Thank you for posting. You say that the Reading Station would be located at the Acme parking lot. That would be the black section of Cape May near the homes of the abolitionists Stephen Smith and William Whipper. These two men from Columbia, Pennsylvania owned a lumber business and rail cars. They built homes and other structures in Cape May in the 1840s-1850s. Are there any records of lumber shipments involving these two men. Thank you very much.

I forget the year, but my grandfather took us to Cape May from Philly to see the last steam engine to come to Cape May.

So sad that there is barely a trace remaining of most of this.
No license/registration; that's how we got around on dirt bikes.
Very nice.....thank you.....I'm old enough to have seen the last of the P-RSL steam in the mid-1950's. I rode the Nellie Bly with my father.

The West Jersey RR didn't arrive in Cape May until 1863. Any heavy cargo like lumber probably would have come by ship before that time.
Awesomeness thanks
Your poster reminds me of an incident in Lumberton, when a train hit a car.
