Newark Light
Rail |
Newark is New Jersey's largest city, and is the
3rd oldest city in the US. At one time it was the heart of NJ. One of
those "hearts" was with electric railways. Newark had streetcars and
interurbans lines heading out in all directions. The Four Corners of
Market & Broad Streets was considered the busiest intersection in the
US. During its peak there were over 500 trolleys during peak hour
crossed this location. The only line left is the City Subway. At one
time many streetcar lines served the subway. Now only the subway route
itself remains. Although a new Branch opened in 2006 linking the subway
Penn Station with a surface line to Broad St. station on the Morris &
Essex lines.
