After 11 p.m., on Friday, June 3, Grand Central Terminal-bound trains will not stop at Metro-North Railroad’s Melrose station on the Harlem Line.  Regularly scheduled train service will resume after 10 p.m. on Sunday, June 6.

 

Customers traveling from Westchester or Bronx stations to Melrose will transfer to buses at the Tremont station for continuing service to Melrose.  Buses are scheduled to connect directly with arriving trains.   

 

Customers traveling from the Melrose station to Harlem-125th Street and Grand Central Terminal will take buses to the Tremont station for continuing train service.  Buses will depart at the same time as regularly scheduled trains.

 

*Note: northbound service at the Melrose station will be unaffected by this service change.

 

This weekend’s service change will help ensure the on-going reliability and safety of Harlem Line trains.  Weekend work includes: installing new drainage pipe and building new interlockings on the tracks that allow trains to switch from one track to another.
