Great shot. Didn't know this was two tracks here at one time.

The Lehigh Valley was two main tracks up to Port Reading Junction when Conrail took over. Conrail penny pinching led to the short-sighted removal of that second main track from Potter to Bound Brook, creating a 10-mile bottleneck. CSX and NS rebuilt it roughly 20 years after Conrail tore it up.
