The Amboy Branch is a railway line in the state of New Jersey, in the United States. It was the original main line of the Camden and Amboy Railroad, and at its fullest extent ran 61 miles (98 km) from South Amboy, New Jersey, to Camden, New Jersey. The line was built between 1830 and 1834 by the Camden and Amboy, and eventually became part of the Pennsylvania Railroad's network. Ownership of the line today is split between Conrail Shared Assets Operations and NJ Transit, whose River Line uses the branch between Camden and Bordentown, New Jersey.
