A Philadelphia to Cape May, NJ train had made its usual stop at Tuckahoe Jct. There, a Baldwin switcher extracted the last car, which it forwarded over a branch line as the Ocean City section. After traversing a huge wetland, which included the Inland Waterway, the train is on solid land again at 51st street station, the first stop in Ocean City.
