    Melrose (Metro-North station)

    The Melrose (also known as Melrose – East 162nd Street) Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of the Melrose section of the Bronx via the Harlem Line. It is 6.1 miles (9.8 km) from Grand Central Terminal and is located in an open cut beneath Park Avenue at its intersection with East 162nd Street. Service at Melrose is limited; trains stop approximately every half-hour during rush hours and every two hours all other times.

    This station is the first/last station in the Zone 2 Metro-North fare zone, and is the first/last station of the CityTicket inter-city ticket zone.

    When Melrose station was originally built by the New York Central Railroad in the late-19th Century, it contained a station house as a bridge over all four tracks, with two island platforms. Similar structures were built for the former Morrisania Station, as well as Tremont Station. The station is located just south of a former wye with the northern terminus of the former Port Morris Branch, and was renovated, with the northbound platform moved out from underneath the overpass to its current location, circa 2006.
