WASHINGTON — Cape May Seashore Lines will replace Conrail as the local freight service provider on 31.68 miles of New Jersey Transit trackage in southern New Jersey on or after Dec. 31, according to a regulatory filing.
CMSL will gain trackage rights over NJ Transit’s Cape May Branch between milepost 27.02 at Winslow Junction, N.J., and milepost 53 at Tuckahoe, N.J., as well as on the Ocean City Branch between Tuckahoe and milepost 58.7 at Palermo, N.J.
Conrail is retaining the right to use the route for limited overhead trackage rights in order to interchange with CMSL at Winslow Junction and to reach the Beesley’s Point Industrial Track at milepost 58.7, which Conrail owns.
CMSL, which operates 27 miles of track in the Garden State, filed a notice of exemption with the Surface Transportation Board this week regarding its trackage rights deal with NJT and Conrail.
