Roseville Avenue (NJT station)

Roseville Avenue was a former station on New Jersey Transit's Morristown Line in Newark, New Jersey that closed in 1984. Built by the Lackawanna Railroad in 1905 to serve Newark's Roseville neighborhood, it once had two tracks (one each eastbound and westbound) on the Lackwanna mainline and two low-wall platforms, with an additional platform along the Montclair-Boonton Line.

Today, the only landmarks that mark the former station site are a metal utility box labeled "ROSEVILLE," and several flights of concrete stairs in the sides of the concrete-lined depression in which the track of the Morristown Line runs between the njt-sta|East Orange and njt-sta|Newark Broad Street stations. Shortly eastward of this structure, the Montclair-Boonton Line splits from the Morristown Line on its way to Montclair, Boonton, and Denville.
