Four miles long trail was a Lehigh Valley spur line. Was longer as a railroad spur line back in the day.
Further south is the Raritan Center complex at 1:12 pm.
Cars there waiting to be picked up.
Short distance to the avenue.
I am at the train show in the New Jersey Expo Center at 2:05 pm.
Almost ready to leave the show at 3:15 pm. I did not stay long since I have to be careful of the virus. I took few photos since I do not like to photograph people nor train items. Next time I will sneak in a few photos of the merchandise.
This is not my photo nor item. I saw a Tyco GP20 engine like this one for $80 yesterday. I know it is rare and I had the $80 to buy it. But to me it is not worth that amount.
This is not my photo nor item. I saw a Tyco Southern set like this one for $400. Rare but not worth it to me at least.
I have left the building at 3:25 pm.

Dover New Jersey depot built in 1901 by the Delaware Lackawanna and Western Railroad. Overhead electric wire ends west of this station.
NJ Transit engine 4207 built in 1965 as a GP40 unit for freight service. Rebuilt into a GP40PH-2B unit for passenger service.
I am on the train to Lake Hopatcong. Passes Mount Arlington with Route 80 in the background.
A pond at Mount Arlington. I am still on the train.
I am near Lake Hopatcong train station.
I arrive at the Lake Hopatcong station platform.
Train is ready to go.
Leaves Lake Hopatcong.
I have over two hours to explore the area.
Bridge over the tracks. Use to have four tracks on this line.
Now only has two tracks. There use to have trolley service on that bridge.
No more trolley service. Only cars and trucks now. I am at an area which use to have a canal. Water long gone and cemented over. Good thing otherwise my feet would be wet.
