Jersey City, Newark and Western Railway

The Jersey City, Newark and Western Railway was incorporated on July 6, 1889, and acquired by the Lehigh Valley Railroad (LVRR).

It started in Jersey City, New Jersey at a connection with the National Docks Railway in Communipaw east of the Central Railroad of New Jersey line, and extended westward on the bridge across Newark Bay to connect with the LVRR's Newark and Passaic Railway.

The connection with the National Docks Railway was used to reach the LVRR terminal in Jersey City.

Shortly thereafter, the LVRR obtained control of the National Docks Railway, and the Greenville and Hudson became redundant.

In 1891 the LVRR consolidated the railroads along the Jersey City route into the Lehigh Valley Terminal Railway.
