We have a number of previous postings on this project going back over a year - too numerous to list here.
Route 206’s Bridge project is in its final stages as NS 9214 (C40-9W) and NS 9966 (C40-9W) bring a heat exchanger west over the CSX’s Trenton Line at Belle Mead (MP 50), NJ on April 15, 2012. The heat exchanger is destined for eventual overseas shipment from Philadelphia. Dirt embankments adjacent to the ex-RDG station now provide a safe vantage point to photograph CSX trains on this line. Prior to the old Route 206’s bridge removal, views from this location were not possible. It also illustrates how deteriorated and vandalized both structures have become over time. Note the partially collapsed roof on the smaller structure.
