The railroad serving the north Jersey shore originally went south of Bay Head to Seaside Park, crossed Barnegat Bay and went on to Camden; that was the old Philadelphia & Long Branch line of the Pennsylvania Railroad. A lot of roads were built over abandoned railroads; the one I just mentioned is now the southbound lanes of NJ route 35 through Manahawkin and Lavallette.
The state of NJ used to have rail service to Ocean City and Cape May until the early 80s; they got rid of it when the federal government ordered Conrail to stop running passenger trains.
