DescriptionSepia-tone photo of Hoboken Station of the New Jersey Junction Railroad, Division Street, Hoboken, no date, circa 1905-1910. Print, 3-5/8" wide x 4-1/2" high. Photographer unknown. Reverse blank. Reference print enlargement on file. View is looking southwest with the trolley trestle at the southern end of Hoboken rising to Jersey City Heights in the background. (This elevated line originated at the North Hudson County Railway Co. (Public Service Railway) terminal next to the Lackawanna Terminal and went along Ferry St. (Observer Highway) before the inclined run to the Heights.) The train station was on the west side of the tracks and could be reached by traveling down First Street (a trolley stop was nearby at Paterson, Marshall and First Sts.) and walking across the tracks to just east of Division Street (a street less than a block long.) The station was just south of First and Division Streets. Note the four tracks running north-south. It was used for both passenger and freight service; other lines listed as using these tracks: New York Central & Hudson River Railroad (N.Y.C.& H.R.R.) and the Erie Railroad to its Weehawken yard. A freight spur runs behind (west side) of the station and runs to a building with the name 'Hygeia (or Hydeia?) Ice Cold Storage' painted on it. See Plate 3 in the 1909 and 1923 editions of Hopkins Atlas of Hudson County. A number of people are seen waiting including several standing between tracks. The right-of-way became the location of the present day Hudson-Bergen Light Rail tracks.
