The only piece of railroad rolling stock left in Mount Holly is this former Conrail transfer caboose, on display next to the old PRR station. It is unclear what the owner's true intentions were in adding the trolley like roof. Perhaps to create a cupola, or maybe make it appear to be a coach? |

WATC 59 |
| Description: |
Sitting at the end of the SRNJ Salem Branch, this Alco has definitely seen better days. Built in 1948 for the Washington Terminal Company, it saw switching duties in Washington Union Station for both WATC and Amtrak until sale to the Tioga Transportation Museum of Flemingville, NY in 1986. The museum became the Tioga Central Railroad a year later to operate freight and passenger service on the ex LV branch out of Owego with 59 seeing brief useage before coming under private ownership and moving to the West Shore Railroad of Mifflinberg, PA in 1989. Changing hands once again, it was moved to the SRNJ in the 1990s. |

| Description: |
Constructed by NYS&W predecessor, New Jersey Midland Railroad, this station was originally named West Hackensack. Once standing on the opposite side of the right of way, it was moved to its present location in 1893 due to the double tracking of the mainline. At one time this building had a telegraph office in addition to Wells Fargo and Railway Express Agency services. Today it houses the Maywood Station Museum, an affiliate of the NYS&W Technical & Historical Society. |
