 Post subject: Flemington, N.J. CNJ Station to be Restored
PostPosted: Wed Jul 14, 2004 2:31 pm 

The former Central RR of NJ Passenger Station in Flemington, NJ is slated to be restored. A bank is purchasing the building which currently the Cafe Main Street. The Bank intends to restore the building to it's 1865 appearance along with adding a remote ATM and drive-up tellers which will be tastefully placed under a replicated station platform. The building has been altered greatly over the years but it's later additions will be removed and the original doors and windows will be reproduced along with the bay window.

If anyone has any photos or drawings of the Flemington Station or any of the 9 other similiar CNJ stations, help would be appreciated. Fortunately Neshanic Station still stands but is currently a private residence. The Flemington Station is located along the portion on the old CNJ South Branch which is now owned and operated by the Black River & Western.

Elizabethport, Bayonne 33rd St., Roselle, Dunellen, Glen Gardener, Bloomsbury, Neshanic Station, Three Bridges, & Flemington were all similiar Stations at one time with the exceptions of minor details. Elizabethport had platforms which would be nice to use as the design for the replicated Station Platform. Only Flemington & Neshanic still stand.

Cafe Main Street will be closing on July 18th so get in your last chance to eat in the station.
