Purdy's (Metro-North station)
The Purdy's Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of Purdy's, a hamlet in North Salem, New York, via the Harlem Line. It is 46 miles (74 km) from Grand Central Terminal and the average travel time to Grand Central is 1 hour, 12 minutes.
Like its southern neighbor, Golden's Bridge, Purdy's is located next to Interstate 684, at NY 116 (Exit 7). However, unlike Golden's Bridge, trees block the view of the station from the expressway.
This station is the northernmost station in the Zone 7 Metro-North fare zone.
==History==
In 1847, Issac Hart Purdy agreed to allow the New York and Harlem Railroad to build their main line through the community for one dollar upon the condition that they establish a station within the community for both passengers and freight. NY&H was acquired by New York Central and Hudson River Railroad in 1864. The decline of the railroads after World War II threatened the very survival of the station until a descendant of Purdy drove to New York City with a copy of the original contract in order to thwart a potential closing in 1955.〔("The First Families Of Westchester," by Dana White (Westchester Magazine) )〕 At some point, a smaller station house was built along the Grand Central Terminal-bound which still survives to this day.〔(2007 Peter Ehrlich photo (WorldNYCSubway.org) )〕〔(Purdy's Metro-North Harlem Line station (Robert Mortell's Road and Rail Pictures) )〕 As with most of the Harlem Line, the merger of New York Central with Pennsylvania Railroad in 1968 transformed the station into a Penn Central Railroad station. Penn Central's continuous financial despair throughout the 1970s forced them to turn over their commuter service to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority which made it part of Metro-North in 1983.
