Elizabeth, NJ, was once the host of a four-track mainline of the Central Railroad of New Jersey (Jersey Central Lines or CNJ) between Jersey City and Cranford. These tracks (save for one) were abandoned the last day of April, 1967, as part of the Aldene plan which rerouted trains to the Penn Station in Newark. Today, evidence still exists of the multi-track mainline; the massive 20-track terminal is now Liberty State Park, and the CNJ passenger station has been converted to a restaurant.
