I was walking along the Delaware Canal Path near Lambertville, NJ, when I came upon this abandoned rail car.

  • are you scared?? sounds like you are

  • nah, it's just that the camera that I had at the time had a weird vibe to it.

  • Continued

    The old rail beds ran from north of Milford to Trenton, generally paralelling the canal or river the whole way down. Some parts of the tracks have been lost, but if you follow the tow path you find find more cars.

  • Hrmm... I wonder if some of these things will show up on Google Earth.. I'll have to take a look!

  • I work for the state park system, and have to maintain the property by the old rail car. the rail bed used to run paralell to the river. It's still owned by Conrail, and the only things that haunts the abandon cars are crack heads and the occasional vagrant. They aren't secluded, since they're close to the heavily used tow path, a boat club and boat launch, sewage plant, and storage sheds.

  • Thanks for your comment. Are there more of these cars laying about along the canal? I've only made it up to where this one is, and just south of Lambertville. I also took video of the ones in New Hope.

  • LOL, it's a fema train. Hee Hee. 

  • That belongs to the Black River and Western Railroad. It's being turned into a museum car at their station in Ringoes.

  • looks like an old baggage car

  • Your breathing is making me breath heavily in the inside just like you.

  • Any idea what railroad this car originally belonged to ?

  • Its NOT a train! Its a baggage car! Please correct your mistake.

  • @livardo i live 2 houses away from the canal they always drain so my friends and i go in and care for the animals.

  • you should try to go into the rail car

  • @Ladymayhem01 i once saw like 7 conrail SD-42s in the woods and i tried firing one up and it worked. the other 6 worked too but cylinders were stuffed. got brand new ones of them. i use them still. i fired the one with graffiti on it and it still worked. i put it on my test track and it ran like hell. so i kept them all

  • It looks like an old Pullman Heavy Weight Baggage Car. Any railroad rolling stock is a treasure to see on a old RR abandoned right of way.
