This the old Montclair Erie Station at Walnut Street. Comment says
compare with Erie Station at Upper Montclair. Replaced in early 1960s

This is the DL&W crossing of Bloomfield Avenue, Just south of the new
Bay Street Station.

I think this is the DL&W just north of Bloomfield Avenue and 2 above.

This definitely the old , recently burned Upper Montclair station.

AIR there were poplar trees in Anderson Park west of the tracks.
Probably planted by the Essex County Park Park Commission.
