Since last episode's honorable mention was a branch line that was shared by New Jersey Transit, might as well pick up where I left off and focus this episode on the only commuter railroad of New Jersey. Of course, as the only branch that's technically isolated from other commuter rail lines in NJT, I decided to review it for standing out in the crowd. But upon further research, I learned that despite its standalone position in the commuter rail system, the Atlantic City Branch has one of the most unique histories of any branch on the entire railroad, as well as some of the most pressing geographic right of way challenges while entering Philadelphia, which resulted in various suggestions based on each possible route (some of which you may not be particularly fond of, but opinions of these suggestions are welcome).
