The Great Lackawanna Cutoff - Then and Now. The approach signal for Port Morris. Junction at Brooklyn-Stanhope Road. Only one curve, most likely the aforementioned curve at Slateford, exceeded two degrees of curvature. While the last rails were pulled up in the mid-1980s, New Jersey Transit recently purchased the right of way with the hope of relieving congestion on Interstate 80, possibly extending service as far as Scranton.
