Port Reading Railroad

The Port Reading Railroad was a railroad chartered in 1890 and opened in 1892 by the Reading Railroad.
==Origins==
The Port Reading Railroad started at a junction in Bound Brook, New Jersey with the Lehigh Valley Railroad and Central Railroad of New Jersey and headed eastward across northern Middlesex County, New Jersey to a terminus port called Port Reading, which was situated on the Arthur Kill in Woodbridge Township near Perth Amboy, New Jersey. Port Reading was constructed specifically to serve the needs of the Reading Railroad.
Via the Port Reading Railroad and the affiliated Port Reading shipping terminal (which was also built by the Reading Railroad) along the Arthur Kill waterway, trains from the Reading Railroad's Trenton line (originally the Delaware and Bound Brook Railroad) were capable of providing through service to/from the New York ports to points south and west, via a connection along the Raritan River from Manville, New Jersey to Bound Brook that was built between the Reading Railroad's Trenton line and the newly built Port Reading Railroad. Remnants of this connection, such as decaying trestles and track, can still be seen along the CSX/NS mainline through this area. The structures closest to the river are the former Reading Railroad connection.
On the 1947 map of Middlesex County (http://mapmaker.rutgers.edu/MIDDLESEX_COUNTY/MiddlesexCounty_1947.jpg) can be seen the route of the Port Reading Railroad, going from Bound Brook (which is just across the county line in Somerset County) to Port Reading. The route is labeled “Philadelphia & Reading Railroad”, because of its ownership by the Reading Railroad.
