The Raritan and Delaware Bay Railroad Company was chartered March 3, 1854, with authority to construct a railroad from some point on Raritan Bay and through the counties of Atlantic and Cape May to Cape Island, near the outlet of Delaware Bay. Construction work began in 1858.

The Camden and Atlantic Railroad Company's charter was approved May 23, 1852. In 1896, the railroad, along with the West Jersey Railroad Company, the Philadelphia, Marlton and Medford Railroad Company, and three other short lines merged to form the West Jersey and Seashore Railroad Company.

The Camden and Amboy Railroad and Transportation Company, incorporated in 1830, was the first built of all railroads in Western New Jersey. It consolidated with Delaware and Raritan Canal Company by act of the New Jersey legislature in 1831 and made jointly liable for contracts entered into by either. Under acts of 1867 and 1872 the joint companies operating the canal were consolidated with another company under the corporate name of the United New Jersey Railroad & Canal Company. In 1871 all property of the company was leased to the Pennsylvania Railroad for a period of 999 years.
