Awesome thanks guys that makes sense. I just noticed the camo netting in the pic as well. I originally thought it was related to hunting due to its location, however I had never seen one like it before and I spend a lot of time in remote sections of woods.

Yeah everyone I have shown it to has been perplexed. I like to pretend it was a mafia grave site.

I don't know a ton about hunting. Is this a common practice?

I found this structure in Lacey area deep in the woods and well off trail. The area was very thick huckleberry and scrub (I would have never walked through it if I didn't have to. I have no idea what purpose this served. Thanks.

Hey Manumuskin, I plan to. I would love to have walked the entire historic path of the railroad. Maybe when this weather gets a little better, ugh.

Thank you thank you! I'll mull this all over throughout the day.

Wow you all are incredible. Thank you Jerseyman, and the rest of you! What a wealth of knowledge. Now to apply this to my research.

That picture from Rutgers is great, thank you. I now have a great understanding of its historic route. My questions now shift to dates of construction.

Is there anyone on these forums that happens to be very knowledgeable about the history of these railroads? I would love some information such as dates of construction, use, etc. Thanks.

Oh my the historic topo is wonderful, geeze. I feel like such a noob, especially since I make maps. This railroad has some really interesting implications to the research I am currently working on. This gives me exactly what I needed, a historic rendition of how the railroad was. Thank you...

Parkdale appears to me much further north than my coords. Mine are very close to the white horse pike.

Hmm I must be missing something. I don't see any continuation after the GPS coords I posted. I do see a separate railroad heading south just west of Ancora which makes a hard loop east and comes over Fleming ave and then continues east and on a spur south. However, I cannot see where the...

I would love to see the historic path.

Is it the same tracks running through Winslow area? And from there to Vineland?
