1976 is about right. Pine Creek got a few things from the office, including the big safe, before the building came down.
Passenger service on the CNJ Southern ended in 1953. One northbound train from Barnegat, and one from Lakehurst, along with a mid-day to and from Lakehurst, with evening trains returning, were all that was left. Passenger service on the Freehold Branch ended at the same time.
The end of the Doodlebug on the PRR was the end of passenger service on that route. Not sure if the F'dale station was in use for the PRR train in 1963. The Doodlebug took Catholic School kids from Red Bank and Long Branch to Trenton. What a cool school bus!
