Serving the people of New York and Connecticut with pride.
About us
Founded in 1983 when the MTA assumed control of Conrail commuter operations in the states of New York and Connecticut, Metro-North Railroad’s roots can be traced back to the New York & Harlem Railroad, which began in 1832 as a horse-car line in lower Manhattan. Today, with 384 route miles and 775 miles of track, Metro-North’s territory covers seven counties in New York State--Dutchess, Putnam, Westchester, Bronx, New York (Manhattan), Rockland, and Orange-and two counties in the state of Connecticut--New Haven and Fairfield. Three main lines east of the Hudson River--the Hudson, the Harlem, and the New Haven -- operate out of Grand Central Terminal in New York City. Two lines west of the Hudson River--the Port Jervis and the Pascack Valley--operate out of New Jersey Transit's terminal in Hoboken, N.J., and connect with service out of Penn Station, NY via the Secaucus Transfer. The Hudson Line extends 74 miles from Grand Central Terminal to Poughkeepsie; the Harlem, 82 miles to Wassaic; and the New Haven, which also has three branch lines--the New Canaan, Danbury, and Waterbury--72 miles to New Haven. The Port Jervis Line runs 95 miles from Hoboken to Port Jervis, with 30 of those miles in New Jersey; the Pascack Valley Line extends 31 miles from Hoboken to Spring Valley, 25 of those miles being in New Jersey. Total square mileage of the service territory is approximately 2,701 miles. The railroad also manages the Hudson Rail Link feeder bus service in the Bronx, and The Haverstraw-Ossining and Newburgh-Beacon ferries, all of which connect with the Hudson Line.

With the re-opening of the eight escalators at the north plaza, we are turning the corner for home to complete the Stamford Transportstion Center Elevator & Escalator Modernization project later this year! Just one escalator and elevator left to complete this project at CT’s busiest rail station (2nd only to GCT on the New Haven Line). Big thanks to O&G Industries, Inc. and KONE for all the great work done to date, as well as the station users and vendors who have been living with this project for the last two years. #escalators #elevators #newhavenline Connecticut Department of Transportation The LiRo Group Michael Baker International Metro-North Railroad

Spotted in Grand Central! The employee tribute locomotive—featuring a mosaic of employee photographs—captures the hard work, commitment, and pride of Metro-North. It also includes symbols such as the New Haven Line’s lighthouse, the Harlem Line’s White Plains clocktower, Hudson Valley views, and the Manhattan skyline. A special thanks to our Metro-North family—past and present—who helped make Metro-North a vital lifeline for New York and Connecticut communities. The engine will go into passenger service later this year.
