Upper Hack Lift
Title:  Upper Hack Lift
Description:  Westbound Train #57 crosses the Hackensack River at Upper Hack drawbridge on its way to Port Jervis. The bridge currently holds the title of the newest movable bridge on NJ Transit property. It was built by the Delaware Lackawanna & Western in 1958 to replace the original two-track span that was outdated and damaged by tidal river currents. The expenses related to building this bridge were among the final straws to break the camels back for the Lackawanna Railroad that would eventually result in the official merger of the Erie and the Lackawanna in October of 1960.

In just a moment the train will leave the low lands of the meadows and enter the densely populated suburbs of Bergen and Passaic counties on the way to the rural countryside of New York State.
