  • The Sussex Railroad (later known as the Sussex Branch of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad) was a short-line railroad in northwestern New Jersey. It replaced its predecessor, the Sussex Mine Railroad, in 1853 and operated under the Sussex Railroad Company until 1945 when it was fully merged into the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DL&W) system. The Sussex Railroad was important in the economic development of Sussex County as it supplied a route for early local industries, such as dairy farms and ore mines, to export their products. It was the last independently operated New Jersey railroad to be incorporated into the DL&W system. The last train travelled on the Sussex Railroad tracks on October 2, 1966. The tracks were removed soon after and the right-of-way was transformed into a rail trail known as the Sussex Branch Trail. (en)
  • La Sussex Railroad (più tardi conosciuta come il braccio Sussex della Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad) è una tratta ferroviaria del Sussex nel nord-ovest del New Jersey, rimpiazza la vecchia Sussex Mine Railroad, nel 1853 e opera sotto la Sussex Railroad Company fino al 1945 quando viene completamente fusa nella Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DL&W). Per quanto il percorso della linea non fosse particolarmente lungo (solamente 55 km) la Sussex Railroad fu importante per lo sviluppo della Contea del Sussex in quanto forniva una strada per le prime imprese locali come le latterie e le miniere di rame per esportare i loro prodotti. L'ultimo treno che viaggiò sulla Sussex Railroad fu il 2 ottobre 1966. (it)
