A bumpstop in the overgrown remnants of the CNJ train shed in Jersey City. This type of train shed was known as bush-type sheds, named after its designer A. Lincoln Bush. It was built in 1914 and is the largest ever built of its type. The terminal played host to many commuter trains in its hey day, including the Blue Comet and until 1958 the B&O’s Royal Blue. It is estimated that 10.5 million people entered the country through this terminal. With the CNJ in decline, and the aldene plan going into effect, this terminal saw its last train on April 30, 1967. Both the terminal building and shed sat abandoned for years. Fortunately the state purchased the property and restored the terminal building as a Bicentennial project in 1976. Both buildings were put on the National Register of Historic Places. Sadly the shed was never preserved and is now in an advanced state of disrepair. Fences surround it and the rails have long since been pulled up and all that is left are the bumpstops.
