Rough comparison of locations:

THEN:

A Port Morris turn is led by four Geeps past the passing siding at Lincoln
Park, NJ on December 28, 1975 in a Rich Campana shot. Note where the freight
cars begin right behind the power, because that is where...

NOW:

...an NJT commuter train is rolling past a sea of colorful fall mums in
early October 2006 in this shot by Frank Etzel he titles "Mum's The Word."
:)

And yes, the passing siding is still there to this day. :)
