Yes. But if they took this longer route would it be more expensive to the customers?
From what I have seen regarding the trains that go through Glassboro, they are pretty large unit trains that I assume serve a few large customers instead of many small customers. If the cost is pushed onto the customer, it probably won't be as devastating or as large of an increase as it was a smaller customer getting a few cars. That being said, 8-10 extra miles isn't a whole lot either way.

Not to mention Winslow to Vineland needs quite a bit of work for this to happen.
Almost guaranteed that if they end up going for my suggestion (which probably won't happen), the state would fund such work. It would still be far cheaper to fix Winslow-Vineland than add three upwards of four extra tracks to a single-tracked line
