The only tracks actually owned by SRNJ are the tracks around Winslow Junction, the Pleasantville Branch, and part of the line south to Vineland. Between Pleasantville and Winslow trains operate over New Jersey Transit tracks. Between Swedesboro and Salem the track is owned by Salem County but SRNJ is the only operator.
[edit] Interchanges
At Winslow Junction there is an interchange between New Jersey Transit and Conrail Shared Assets Operations, where most freight is exchanged. SRNJ is a New Jersey Common Carrier and the railroad also interchanges with Conrail at Vineland and Swedesboro. At Vineland there is also an interchange with the Winchester and Western Railroad.
