Since William Penn founded Philadelphia, folks have been needing to cross the river to that fine city. There could be many reasons for this, including selling their goods in town, needing to buy something, going over to visit friends or family, or for religious services (especially the early Quakers).
The earliest way to do this was via a ferry, most directly at Cooper's Ferry in what is now Camden, although other ferries also exhisted. This began to shift with the coming of the railroads in the mid-to-late 1800s, as people wanted particularly to head down to the shore. However, great ferries still had to carry people across the Delaware River before depositing them onto the trains, most notably the Pennsylvania Reading Seashore Line.
The great ferries died off quickly when the first of the bridges between New Jersey and Delaware opened in 1926. Space was left on the outside of these bridges for trains and a lane was left on the bridge for trollies, each to head between Philadelphia and Camden. The trollies never went into service, but rail service between these two cities began in 1936. The line was expanded further into Philly in the 1950s.
On January 4, 1969, the current train line made it's first run between Lindenwold, NJ and Camden, NJ. The station here at Woodcrest was the last one added to the system, opening for business in 1980 after it was decided there needed to be a station with direct access to the interstate.
Cache is the usual sort in the usual place. PLEASE USE THE PARKING COORDINATES (free parking!) or park in one of the paid lots that are close (free after 10 AM) - you should be able to park pretty close if its not peak hours. Please resist the temptation to park in the medium next to the hiding spot to grab this one. I know it's tempting, but you can walk a few feet from a safer place to grab this.
Congrats to gumshowDOTus on the FTF!
