The North White Plains Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of White Plains, Greenburgh and Armonk via the Harlem Line. It is the north terminal for most trains that run local to the south and, until 1984, was the northern limit of electrification. Adjacent to the station is a yard/support facility of trains, one of two on the line (Southeast in Brewster is the other). It is 23.8mi from Grand Central Terminal. Travel time varies from 37 minutes - one hour depending on if the train is express or local.This station is the northernmost station in the Zone 4 Metro-North fare zone.HistoryNorth White Plains station was originally built in 1972 by the Penn Central Railroad as a replacement for the former New York Central Railroad-built Holland Avenue station, a low-level northbound-only side platform located near the south end of the current station. It contained both high-level and low-level platforms, until electrification was expanded north of the station. Once Penn Central was dissolved in 1976, Conrail took responsibility for commuter service, until the Metropolitan Transportation Authority officially established Metro-North Railroad in 1983, making the station and the line part of the new railroad.
