Harriman station

The Harriman station is a commuter rail stop on the Metro-North Railroad's Port Jervis Line, serving the village of Harriman, the town and village of Monroe, and the town of Woodbury in Orange County, New York. Before its use as a station, the area was better known as "Newburgh Junction" and was where the Erie Railroad's mainline separated from the Newburgh Shortcut (later the Graham Line). This junction was controlled by the "NJ" interlocking tower and, while the mainline has been abandoned since 1983, the wye (rail) remains intact.
