'''The Camden & Amboy Railroad''' was charted in New Jersey in [[1830]]. The company purchased the "John Bull," one of the first successful locomotives in North America, from [[Robert Stephenson and Company]] of [[Newcastle upon Tyne]], [[England]]. Its line ran between Camden and Amboy in New Jersey and was a link between New York and Philadelphia, which lies across the Delaware River from Camden. The railroad was leased to the Pennsylvania Railroad in [[1871]]. |
