What is the status of branch lines in NJ? RR's now seem to be all containerized or distribution centers. Any old school branch lines left with lots of sidings being used?

Look at all the branchlines.....If it doesn;t have passenger service, then there's a 99% chance it has local freight service. Just about every line in NJ that doesn't have freight or passenger service, was abandoned in the great CR sell or abandon-a-thon of the 1980's and 1990's. CR tried to get out of the carload freight biz, which, IMO, was stupid. They also actively tried to abandon as many team tracks as possible.
