County Yard
County Yard is a rail yard in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA along the Northeast Corridor (NEC). Originally developed by the Pennsylvania Railroad, it is owned by Amtrak. The New Jersey Transit Rail Operations (NJT) Jersey Avenue Station, served by its Northeast Corridor Line, is just south of the yard. In 2014, NJT began a project to upgrade the yard and build a "train haven" and re-inspection station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State to pick up half of $368 million cost to flood proof NJ Transit train storage )〕 County Yard will be able to store 132 rail cars. The Delco Lead, south along NEC, would be expanded to five additional tracks able to park 312 rail cars and a service and inspection facility would be built to return equipment to service.〔http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2015/04/tell_nj_transit_your_opinion_about_the_new_brunswick_train_yard_expansion.html〕
==History==
County Yard was originally part of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) and is located where the Millstone Branch joined its mainline, now the NEC. It was named for Alexander T. County, a vice-president and treasurer who lived in New Brunswick. A new tower and interlocking at "COUNTY" were opened in 1900. Passenger service ended in 1930.
The Jersey Avenue Park & Ride station opened October 24, 1963, at the beginning, or eastern end, of the spur line. The PRR was eventually succeeded by Amtrak in 1971, which shares the NEC with NJT's Northeast Corridor Line and other commuter lines.
