We need history, not to tell us what happened or to explain the past, but
to make the past alive so that it can explain us and make a future
possible.-Alan Bloom

Resurrected Right of Way and Track Map of the Bergen & Dundee
Railroad operated by Erie RR in Passaic and Garfield, NJ. My copy
of this valuation map is dated July 31, 1942 and is tough to read
in places.

This map indicates that a portion of the Passaic River that
formed Dundee Island was filled in before 1942. Other map
details include NYS&W trackage and NYS&W/Erie Interchange,
trolley lines, Dundee Canal and the names of many customers,
such as Botany Worsted Mills, Okonite, Pantasote, US Rubber,
J. L. Prescott, General Chemical, Paterson Parchment Paper,
Gera Mills, Hayden Chemical, etc. A freight house platform
and team tracks for public delivery customers were at 6th St.

Inclusion of detailed information about NYS&W Right of Way
and Track suggest that the Erie enjoyed Trackage Rights over
portions of the NYS&W Passaic Branch to the vicinity of
Outwater Lane.
