This is a List of New Jersey railroad junctions, present and past.
| Junction | Systems | Lines | Location | Current status |
| Aldene Junction | CNJ, LV, CSAO, NJT, | CNJ Main Line, LV Terminal Branch, NJT Raritan Valley Line | Aldene 40°39′33″N 74°16′47″W﻿ / ﻿40.659219°N 74.279624°W﻿ / 40.659219; -74.279624 | Opened May 1, 1967. Currently in service for NJT's Raritan Valley trains. At the time of completion (and along with the Hunter Connection), it allowed CRRNJ traffic to terminate in Newark Penn Station, rather than its own Communipaw Terminal. This saved the floundering CNJ of the large operating costs of their terminal and ferry service. Reading Company's Crusader that once terminated in Communipaw also used the junction to terminate in Penn Station. A shuttle between Cranford and Bayonne, known as "the Scoot," operated until August 6, 1978, after which the right-of-way between Aldene and Bayonne was effectively abandoned. The CRRNJ Newark Bay Bridge was demolished in stages after the US Coast Guard deemed it too great a hazard to maritime traffic. The junction and the Aldene-Elizabethport right-of-way is currently owned and controlled by CSAO. |

| Bound Brook Junction | LV, CNJ, RDG | Junction of former Lehigh Valley Railroad, Central Railroad of New Jersey main lines and Reading Railroad Port Reading Branch | Bound Brook 40°33′38″N 74°31′52″W﻿ / ﻿40.560536°N 74.531243°W﻿ / 40.560536; -74.531243﻿ (Bound Brook Junction) | A junction still exists, but is rarely used since the lines now serve passenger and freight traffic separately. The original Bound Brook Jct (where the Reading line to Philadelphia met the CNJ main line 1.6 miles west of Bound Brook station) was removed by Conrail years ago. The former LV main line is now operated by Conrail, CSX and Norfolk Southern and used for long distance and local freight services. The former CNJ main line is now NJ Transit's Raritan passenger line. A branch line called the Port Reading Secondary, formerly called the Port Reading Railroad (RDG), originates at Bound Brook Junction and crosses northern Middlesex County to connect with the Chemical Coast line in Eastern Middlesex County. The Port Reading Secondary has been refurbished and upgraded by its new owner CSX as a second route to Oak Island Terminal in Newark, NJ (via the Chemical Coast Line) and other points on the CSX system. The line now handles much more freight traffic than it handled in the later 20th Century under Conrail, including long haul double-stack container freight traffic. |

Junction was just north of Rutherford Station, and was controlled by a stone interlocking tower ("BJ"), which still stands at the site. The Main Line trackage diverted to the left, crossing the Passaic River into Passaic, where the rails went right up the center of Main Ave for about a mile with north and south bound auto traffic on either side of the rails. The Main Line continued through Paterson, and continued north until it met the Bergen County Line at its northern end at Ridgewood Jct ("WJ"). After the merger with the DL&W, the Erie Main Line was abandoned on west side of Passaic River and up through Passaic. The old Main Line tracks were used for a number of years after this time from the junction for about 1 mile west to serve two chemical companies that existed just east of where tracks used to cross the river (at Jackson Ave & W. Erie Ave, Rutherford). Today the old Main Line rails are still intact up to this intersection, along with dilapidated crossing gates and flashers. This track has not been used since the 1970s, is completely overgrown, and discussions are going on between Rutherford and NS to abandon it and turn it over to Rutherford for a bike/hike trail. |
