Southern Branch
In 1917, the CNJ took over the New Jersey Southern Railroad. It was along this trackage that the CNJ operated its most famous train, The Blue Comet, which ran from Jersey City to Winslow Junction, and then along The Reading Co's Atlantic City Railroad trackage to Atlantic City. South from Red Bank, the CNJ operated the following stations:

Famous quotes containing the words southern and/or branch:
“Southern trees bear a strange fruit
Blood on the leaf and blood at the root
Black bodies swingin in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hangin in the poplar trees.”
—Billie Holiday [Eleanor Fagan] (19151959)
“In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic.”
—Karl Marx (18181883)
