Description This is the point in Phillipsburg where in 1/4 mile you have crossings built by the Central Railroad of New Jersey, Lehigh Valley Railroad and The Lehigh & Hudson River Railroad.

Pictured to the right is the former L&HR crossing which is still used by the Belvidere & Delaware River to access Easton and Allentown, PA.

Pictured to the left is the former Central Railroad of New Jersey crossing. Formerly a 2-track span, one of the tracks hae been removed and the remaining structure only carries one track. It is still used by Norfolk Southern located on the Lehigh Line.

Not pictured is the Lehigh Valley Railroad bridge bridge. No tracks remain, but the structure is left intact although slightly damaged from a prior flood where the Delaware River flooded its banks almost 50ft.
