[8] Just west of the station, at Baker Interlocking, the Morristown and Erie Railway branches off the NJT line.

A predecessor station was the terminus of the Morris and Essex Railroad, using the same railbed, constructed in 1835.

[9] Ultimately the line extended to the east to Hoboken and the Hudson River connecting to New York by ferry.

[10] In earlier years long distance trains, such as the Chicagoan and the Lackawanna Limited, stopped at the station on their trips west.

[13] In 1913, the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western station house was built, designed by Frank J. Nies.
