(erielack) Piermont Branch

The short (2 mile) segment between Nanuet Jct (with NJ&NY branch) and Spring
Valley is still operated by NJT as the end of the Pascack Valley line. I
believe the rest was abandoned, and this happened in stages. By 1974 the
portion east of Nanuet Jct  had been severed at the Hack R bridge. East of
there was accessed from the Northern at Sparkill although I don't know if
any of it was still active by C-day. My 1993 SPV atlas shows only the
Sparkill-Piermont portion as being actually abandoned at that time although
this may not be accurate.

Does anyone know when the Erie Piermont Branch was abandoned?
