    This was a fantastic video, I learned so much! Thank you for including the information on the NY&GL (Erie) station in West Orange, I never knew where the station was, and never knew what it looked like. Amazing that the name "Erie Loop" is STILL used by NJ Transit buses terminating at this point, despite the Erie (and its successor, the Erie-Lackawanna) being gone since 1976!! Thank you for your most informative video!

    Excellent information and presentation. The 21 streetcar line ran through my neighborhood -- Roseville -- both on Orange Street and a separate route down Warren (W. Market) Street. Commuters along the route were well served.

    Great videos Joe! i was always curious about that old home on Old indian Road, i remember it had a sign saying it was built in the 1700s. Always curious of the history of that home. Thanks again!

    If you restore the trolley line you might as well go Buy the same Light Rail vehicles used in Newark and Jersey City or ask CAF Southern tier NY State for an Urbos Tram.

      Where West Orange is at?
      How about where is it located
      Proper grammar is much better than Ebonics

      @@Michael-dj9zq Where West Orange is at or Where West Orange is located would have both been correct. Be safe.
