Curious that the thread title correctly identifies it, and you've marked it as 'solved'. What more do you need to know?

I can’t find a way to get a better picture sufficiently enlarged to give you a comparison, but it’s listed here for the United Railroad of new Jersey as:

Fig. 77: U.R.R OF N.J in old English letters, brass, staff type, SMC date, 1872.
