    That part of the tracks north of Lewis is dead rail. They used to go by my business on bridge street and terminate at the old Rohm & Haas plant in Bridesburg. That plant has been leveled for a few years now.

    That's called the Delair bridge. In Winter, the wind would come down the Delaware and pick up moisture and drive it through your clothes like nails. I had to walk that bridge and check the bridgelocks for the signal system that allows trains to enter onto the draw.

    New Jersey Transit's Atlantic City train also uses the Conrail bridge. The other section you were walking along was used to serve Rohm & Haas when the plant was still there.

    I grew up in Fox Chase & Bustleton 1960’s - 1980’s. I used to bike the Pennypack Park bike trail.
    Is that part of Delaware Avenue near the auto auction? I moved from Delco to Florida last year. I miss my dirty hometown.

    I grew up in New York City, and even as an adult I still love discovering abandoned or disused train lines and just off the beaten path spaces of the city in general. This was an excellent look into a very special place for you, I’m sure.

    I used to run through the Meadows back when I ran cross country for North Catholic. I so miss the chance to walk through and get into those "off the sidewalk" places. Every moment you are there makes me feel like you are going to be murdered. It's always good to be with a friend when you explore those places. Things can turn south real fast.

    We got caught on train tracks a few times. Those train track security guards are not messing around. They would scare the shit out of us. Screaming and chasing us off.
