Traction Line Recreation Trail

The Traction Line Recreation Trail is a multi-use paved asphalt rail trail located in Morristown, New Jersey.

This 2.7-mile (4.3 km) trail uses a rail corridor which was built for the Morris County Traction Company trolley line, which runs alongside New Jersey Transit's Morris & Essex Lines in Morris Township, New Jersey.

The trail is maintained by the Morris County Park Commission.

The southern trailhead can be found along Danforth Rd in Florham Park, New Jersey. One northern trailhead exists along Howell Place in Morristown, New Jersey where there is a small trail parking lot. Approximately 100m further north is another trailhead on Morris Ave in Morristown across the road from the Morristown National Historical Park. There are no bathroom facilities along the trail though there are a few benches near Convent Station constructed by Christian Fox and Ryan Servais as their Eagle Scout project for Boy Scout Troop 34.
