At West Newburgh, the line again turns southwest past the site where there was once an engine house, turntable, and six-track yard.

[2] The branch's ROW leaves the existing tracks at Vails Gate Junction, just south of Route 300, and these tracks presently end just past a grade crossing at Route 94, south of Vails Gate Junction.

Soon, the line turns west and goes through the valley cut by Moodna Creek, where it passed over Jackson Avenue on a bridge, removed in 1985.

The ROW continues roughly following Moodna Creek before crossing under the Moodna Viaduct, which now carries Metro-North's Port Jervis Line, formerly the Erie's (Graham Line), originally built as a high-speed freight bypass to the Erie Main.

After crossing over Route 94 again, this time on an overpass, it skirts the rather large swamp that is situated north of Greycourt, then ends at a wye in the Main Line, which can still somewhat be seen today on the Orange Heritage Trail.

Eventually, the line started using leased Central Railroad of New Jersey locomotives, and by the early 1970s, a single EMD GP7 was the main motive power for the local freight down the branch, usually having less than 20 cars.

West Newburgh station had an engine house, turntable, and six-track yard, all of which lasted until at least 1957.

The line had five crossings of Moodna Creek, all between Salisbury Mills and Blooming Grove stations, of which all five remain.
