That crossing is on the site (and so is that little leftover track)

Are you sure those are out of service? I've seen lines with worse greenery than this line that are still in service

The flangeways in the crossings are filled with dirt. Plus, the track doesn't lead anywhere.

This is also a pretty sure sign that the tracks haven't been used in awhile.

I guess I am a little too quick to draw conclusions

I would assume it hasn't always been like that... but I don't quite see how this track was ever used.

In Yardville, NJ, there is this line of tracks that have been removed in the north and gradually are working their way down south. When you get to Bordentown, they connect with NJ Transit's Riverline. Does anyone know what these are?
I only know that CSX owns both segments and that it goes to South Brunswick at a place not far from Monmouth Junction after NJT/Amtrak's Princeton Station. On the GPS I have in my car, you can see where the tracks were before removal.
