Hey Dana,

This doesn't directly answer your question, but may help a bit.

TrakEdge publishing, a railfan home-based pamphleteer out of the Absecon 
area has printed several volumes detailing abandoned lines in South 
Jersey.

"Guide To South Jersey Abandoned Railroads Vol x"

He focuses more on trackage and other extant structures than stations, per 
se.  The pines are so tenacious that things get overgrown quickly.

I know for a fact that The Ocean City library has copies of most of them 
in its local history section.  Probably several other lib systems in the 
area do as well.  I'd be surprised if Ocean County lib in Tom's River 
didn't have it, they are one of the best systems in the area.




Also, some time ago, someone (on this list, I think) had a site at 
http://www.njtrainstations.com/

but it's long-gone now. However, there are parts of it (probably more 
text than pictures) available at the Way Back Machine  http://web.archive.org/


And I think Bernie Wagenblast has links to New Jersey Depot photos at the 
RSHS site on TrainWeb   http://www.trainweb.org/
Yeah, here it is:

I hope that helps.
