It saw 66 trains a day in its heyday, but the interior ceased as a station with the decline of passenger trains in the 1960s, and today a new platform near the old building is used by Metro-North - its 87.5-mile (140.8 km) rail distance from Grand Central Terminal, NYC, is the farthest from that station on the Metro-North system east of the Hudson River.
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 and is now the base of the local newspaper.
