Highbridge Facility

The Highbridge Facility is a maintenance facility of the Metro-North Railroad in Bronx, New York City, United States. It is the third stop along the Hudson Line, and is for Metro-North employees only. The station is located south of the High Bridge, off Depot Place and Exterior Drive, and is accessible from Sedgewick Avenue by way of a viaduct that carries Depot Place over the Major Deegan Expressway, the Hudson Line, and Exterior Drive. It was originally built by the New York Central Railroad.〔(Bronx Railroad Stations (Brennan's Abandoned Stations web-site) )〕 Photographs from the 1960s indicate that the station was a regular passenger depot before it was a rail yard.〔(June 1961 Photo by Ed Davis Senior; Collection of David Pirman (WorldNYCSubway.org) )〕
The railroad station in the Highbridge section of the Bronx was once part of the New York Central (later Metro-North) railroad Hudson Division (Line). The station served as a transfer point for the Putnam Division (Line) of the NYC. The Central's long distance passenger trains including the Wolverine, 20th Century and Lake Shore Limited picked up their dining cars at Highbridge after leaving Grand Central Terminal but Highbridge was not an official stop for the trains. The Central also had a passenger car washing facility at Highbridge.
Along with the passenger service, Highbridge also had a tractor trailer/freight yard where trucks would load their trailers on to flat cars for "piggyback" service and at one time had a pier to load freight cars on barges when the Central owned its own fleet of tugboats and car carriers. A scene in the movie ''Funny Girl'' shows Barbra Streisand riding one of the Central tugs.〔(Funny Girl; 1968 (On The Set of New York) )〕 The passenger station was closed and demolished in the late 1970s and the freight yard now serves as a maintenance facility of the Metro-North Railroad.
