A Walk to Milepost 3 on the Princeton Branch

West Jersey Chapter member John Kilbride (at center, in orange) hosted a trip over the Princeton Branch on Saturday, March 8, 2014. After inspecting NJ Transit's new temporary station at Princeton, the group hiked to Milepost 3, now standing amidst the buildings of Princeton University on land that was once the PRR's terminal. The left side of the cast iron milepost reads 3, the distance to Princeton Junction. Originally the Princeton Branch was 3.2 miles long. Photo by Kevin Painter.
