The address for this would be the the tracks that cross over Chester Avenue in the immediate vicinity of East Third Street. The lights are still there and the tracks look like they are in perfect shape. Also, make sure you look for two distinct concrete markers. They look like mini obelisks. They are mid 19th century in origin.
Here's what the department of the interior has to say about it:
"Railroad tracks at E. Third Street (Moorestown Train Station (c.1870) moved eastward beyond district boundary). - Contributing.”
