Took a bunch of photos a few days ago. Taken from the Phillipsburg Railroad Historians museum (PHR) and Bel Del railroad.

PRH has a wood CNJ caboose and steam era boxcar as well as a wartime gondola that might be L&HR. 

The foreground across the JC mainline shows the remains of the yard JC and Lackawanna maintained at one time. Line in the background of the Phillipsburg station is the DL&W which runs up to Washington where the Old Road cuts up to Oxford tunnel and further up the Manunka Chunk tunnels popping out onto the Bel Del. 

PHR also maintains a miniture gauge line that runs by the old concrete coal ramp. LVRR bridge in Phillipsburg is unused so all Lehigh Line trains are rerouted on to the CNJ main across to Easton. 

Fun little fact, the I beams in photo 12 were apparently some of the last made in Bethlehem Steel.
