Newfoundland, New Jersey

I saw the movie "The Station Agent" and thought it was pretty darn good. Has anyone been to Newfoundland New Jersey where it was filmed - any photos of the station there?
If you haven't seen this movie, I recommend it for any modeler, railfan, or train-chaser.

 

Is it a new movie?

 

I think the movie actually came out in 2003. I found it playing on TV on one of the Starz channels.

Didn't Natalie Wood play in a movie like this about the L&N RR? "This Property is Condemned" Something like that.

 

I just checked the Starz web site - here's the schedule:
Sunday July 17 Starz Edge (east) 12:40 PM
Monday July 18 Starz (east) 2:35 PM
Tuesday July 28 Starz Edge (east) 9:15 AM

 

Aww nuts - should have put in the link to Starz:

Yes she did, "This Property Is Condemned" was filmed in New Orleans back in '65 or '66.

Actually most foamers considered Natalie Wood merely a "supporting" actress...the real "star" was Reader Railroad Consolidation #1702. This loco was one of the last to be built by Baldwin during WWII for the US Army. The reason I remember it so well is because it was waiting for about 4 hours on an L&N passing siding near my house just panting, hissing, popping...ahhh, what lovely sounds.
