The following information was sent by Ken Loudon in regards to the schedule for this motor car at the time of the picture.
Eastbound:
Train 652 dp. Trenton 7:05AM, W Trenton 7:18, ar Bound Brook 8:07 where there
was a one minute connection to the CNJ for Jersey City. Notation states that CNJ
train would NOT be held if 652 was late!
Train 654 dp. Trenton 7:45 AM, W Trenton 8:02, connect at Belle Meade
(8:39-8:52) with No 600 (Crusader), ar. Bound Brook 8:56.
Both of these trains are shown operating via the West Trenton station. The Trenton spur was
served by stub track on the eastbound side - wonder
if they changed ends?
Westbound there was only one run:
Train 673 dp. Bound Brook 5:42PM, ar. Trenton 6:48. Notation states that
passengers (from Bound Brook or Weston-Manville) for West Trenton and beyond
should connect at Belle Meade to No 621 (Crusader) - 6:00 is shown for both
trains at BM!
As to operating to or from Port Reading, there is no indication that they did
this, or that they used a station other than the CNJ's, or what was done with
the equipment of the additional eastbound train.
