For clarification, here's yet another photo by William B. Barry. This one is
taken right at the junction of the two lines looking directly east. This
clearly shows there was a platform for both the Boonton Line side (left) and
M&E side (right). By this point, the perpendicular M&E crossing with the
Boonton Line that led into the Rockaway Loop is gone, and the track curving
off the Boonton Line before the freight house is the new northwest quadrant
of the Denville wye (the Rockaway Loop then came off the northern leg of the
wye)
