Essex Fells was the terminus of the Erie Railroad's Caldwell Branch in the community of Essex Fells, New Jersey. Located at the junction of Oak Lane and Chestnut Lane, the station was also a connection to the Morristown and Erie Railroad, which continued west through Roseland towards Morristown. The next station north from the Essex Fells station was Caldwell heading northward to Great Notch in Little Falls, where the line connected to the New York and Greenwood Lake Railroad. Service through the Caldwells began on August 3, 1891 with the opening of the Caldwell Railway. The service was extended in 1892 to Essex Fells. In 1903, the Morristown and Erie Railroad was approved to extend to Essex Fells and provide a direct connection to the Erie and New York City. By 1962, the Caldwell Branch, and service to Essex Fells had been consolidated to two daytime trains heading to Hoboken Terminal and two back. The last train arrived in Essex Fells on September 30, 1966, after the newly formed Erie Lackawanna Railroad got permission from the Interstate Commerce Commission to cut several branches. The station building was demolished in November 1966.
