In the mid-1930s the Queen of the Valley ran six days a week.[2] In the early 1960s it was daily in operation.[1]
In 1963, the route was shortened from Harrisburg and Reading to Allentown, owing to the loss of mail contracts.[3] Following the creation of the new Aldene Connection in 1967 and the closure of the CNJ Terminal in New Jersey, the train was terminated. However, some commuter service on the Allentown to Newark via the new Aldene Connection continued.
