context_page_description: Waltz & Reece Cut is the deepest cut on the Lackawanna Cut-Off railroad line in northwest New Jersey. The cut is 0.68 miles long, has an average depth of 37 feet, and a maximum depth of 114 feet.
  Located between mileposts 48.3 and 49.0 in Byram Township, it sits on a tangent section of right-of-way just west of McMickle Cut and just east of Bradbury Fill.
  It was built between 1908 and 1911 by Waltz & Reece Construction Company, which removed 822,400 cubic yards of fill material by blasting with dynamite or other methods. The line was abandoned in 1983.
  In 2012, a single track was relaid through the cut as part of NJ Transit's plans to restart rail service no earlier than 2021.
