Keep your phone on display alongside a story of changing American railways. This foldable mobile phone display stand celebrates the West Shore Railroad, whose route ran from Weehawken north beside the Hudson River to Albany and west to Buffalo. The railway was reorganized under New York Central control in 1885 and formally merged into the company in 1952. A thoughtful choice for rail history collectors, it recalls a line whose later freight service carried its history forward.
The West Shore Railroad operated in New York and New Jersey from 1885 to 1952. Its oldest original component dates to 1866, and several predecessor lines and trackage rights helped shape the route. The New York, West Shore and Buffalo Railway was incorporated in 1880 to compete with the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad. Between 1881 and 1883, it built a 435-mile trunk line from Weehawken, New Jersey, north along the west side of the Hudson River to Albany, then west to Buffalo. A contest over the route between the New York Central and Pennsylvania Railroad was settled through a deal brokered by financier J. P. Morgan. The railway was reorganized under New York Central control as the West Shore Railroad on December 5, 1885. Its straighter sections were used for through freight. On June 20, 1952, it was formally merged into the New York Central Railroad. Passenger service later ended on portions of the route, and the line passed through Penn Central and Conrail before most of it became part of CSX in 1999, operating as the River Subdivision.
