}} The Croton–Harmon () Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of Croton-on-Hudson, New York via the Hudson Line. It is the main transfer point between the Hudson Line's local and express service, and it is also served by almost all Amtrak trains on the line. Metro-North trains leave for New York City about every 30 minutes. It is from Grand Central Terminal. Travel times to Grand Central range from 42 minutes (super-express runs) to 71 minutes (trains making all local stops). The Metro-North shops, formerly those of the New York Central Railroad, are located at Croton–Harmon. It is also the northern limit of electrification. Metro-North traditionally hosts an open house of the maintenance facilities every October, though a hiatus of future events may take place due to renovations of the Harmon shops.〔(Metro North's annual open house at Harmon shop )〕〔(Come One – Come All To Harmon Shops's Open House (MTA Press Releases; September 25, 2008) )〕 During the days of the New York Central Railroad, the station and shops were known as Harmon. Trains continuing north of Harmon, including the flagship ''20th Century Limited'' would exchange their electric locomotive for a steam or diesel locomotive to continue the journey to points north and west. The Village of Croton-on-Hudson operates the station parking lot. A great number of spots are reserved for long-term permit holders and village residents. There is also ample parking for daily use.〔(Village of Croton Train Station Parking )〕 The station is easily accessed via the Croton Point Ave exit from US 9. As of August 2006, daily commuter ridership was 3368 and there are 1903 parking spots. ==Platforms and tracks== The station has three high-level island platforms each 10 cars long. The west platform is between Tracks 2 and 4, the middle platform is between Tracks 1 and 2, and the east platform is between Tracks 1 and 3. The Hudson Line has four tracks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Croton–Harmon (Metro-North station)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
