Platforms and Tracks
The station has two high-level island platforms each 10 cars long. The west platform next to Tracks 2 and 4 is generally used by southbound trains headed toward Grand Central Terminal (Metro-North trains) or Pennsylvania Station (Amtrak trains). The east platform next to Tracks 1 and 3 is generally used by northbound trains. As of 2010, there is no longer any parking across from the train station and no handicapped parking.
The Hudson Line has four tracks here.

Famous quotes containing the words platforms and/or tracks:
“The personal things should be left out of platforms at conventions .... You can argue yourself blue in the face, and you’re not going to change each other’s minds. It’s a waste of your time and my time.”
—Barbara Bush (b. 1925)
“I long ago lost a hound, a bay horse, and a turtle-dove, and am still on their trail. Many are the travellers I have spoken concerning them, describing their tracks and what calls they answered to. I have met one or two who had heard the hound, and the tramp of the horse, and even seen the dove disappear behind a cloud, and they seemed as anxious to recover them as if they had lost them themselves.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
