WESTFIELD AVE.
The RV's mainline began at a connection with the CNJ at Aldene. Upon departing the interchange, the tracks curved and then crossed the busy four lane Westfield Ave. The tracks continued generally in a northward direction. There were industries, served by the railroad, located along Valley Road that backed up to the main. Until the 1950s/60s, this was a rather sparsely settled section of Roselle Park. Later on, as suburban development increased, two grade crossings appeared: W. Webster Ave. and Woodside Ave.
