The Somerville and Easton Railroad was chartered February 26, 1847 to continue the line west to Easton, Pennsylvania. The first extension, to Whitehouse, opened in 1848 and was leased to the E&S. On February 11, 1849 the E&S bought the S&E, and on February 26 the two companies were consolidated as the Central Railroad of New Jersey. The rest of the line to Phillipsburg, New Jersey opened in 1852, and on September 8, 1855 the upper level of the Lehigh Valley Railroad's Easton Bridge over the Delaware River to Easton opened, taking the CNJ to Easton. At that time, Lehigh Valley Railroad coal trains started running over the CNJ to Elizabeth.

On October 6, 1873 the CNJ leased the New York and Long Branch Railroad, which was in the process of building from Perth Amboy southeast to Long Branch. At the same time the Perth Amboy and Elizabethport Railroad was building from Elizabethport on the CNJ south to Perth Amboy. Hostilities at the crossing of the Pennsylvania Railroad's Perth Amboy and Woodbridge Railroad in April 1872 led to an injunction against the PRR interfering with the construction. The CNJ bought the PA&E later that year. The full line to Long Branch opened September 7, 1875, and was later extended south, reaching Bay Head in 1881 by acquiring other companies. In 1882 the CNJ and Pennsylvania Railroad agreed to use the line jointly, with trackage rights granted to the PRR over the Perth Amboy and Elizabethport between the Perth Amboy and Woodbridge crossing and its south end at the Raritan River bridge.
