According to a Rehoboth history timeline I found on the web, the town was served by passenger rail from 1878 to 1928. I believe the spur was formerly Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington RR and later PRR.
As for the ROW between Lewes and Rehoboth... I've created a li'l map, based on a 1918 topo showing the then Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington Railroad line into Rehoboth (top) and a 1998 aerial photo of the same region (bottom). Arrows highlight what seems to be the ROW.
