We need some sharp-eyed people to fill in the blanks in the media section. Harlem-125 has appeared on Law and Order and I'm certain it's been used in quite a few films, but never properly identified.

The article makes an unreferenced claim that, except for off-peak local trains on the Harlem and Hudson Lines, northbound trains stop at the station only to receive passengers while southbound trains stop only to discharge passengers. How does this work? Does Metro-North forbid passengers from disembarking from northbound trains?

If I understand correctly, then, it's stating that people generally choose not to or have difficulty embarking or disembarking at the station? We should remove the statement, then, as it's not only
WP:OR, it's misleading.

It is not in any way OR or misleading, it is an accurate description of the station note in every Hudson and Harlem line schedule folder. Now weather or not they are able to effectively police the policy is a different story, but to remove the note based on personal assumption isoriginal research by synthesis. Leave it as is.

Why was this page renamed to have spaces around the dash? In this use, the dash plays the role of a hyphen, so should not be spaced (see
MOS:HYPHEN) and it looks very odd.

When doing the track assignments, it is important to consider what is being assigned.
For example, at Harlem-125 St, the usual assignment is that off peak, tracks 2/4 go South and tracks 1/3 go North. However, due to off peak construction, track 2 can go towards GCT and track 1 away from GCT peak. During rush hour, track 1 goes in the peak direction, track 2 goes inbounds, track 3 goes outbounds, and track 4 goes in either direction.
In addition, the branch lines on the New Haven Line are not marked correctly. For example, the Danbury branch has four direct trains each direction. See specifically on the main line timetable that there is no branch service from Waterbury to Grand Central and see train #1882 (listed lower down as âTo Danburyâ on the main timetable which states Greenwich at 8:43 PM.[1]Theoallen1 (

I don't know what you're not seeing. There are two tables showing direct service to both, with Waterbury in the bottom right corner of the timetable. The only branch directly used on the main table is the New Canaan. Cards84664(talk)15:22, 1 November 2018 (UTC)reply
The Waterbury branch timetable shows âCâ for all trains, which means connecting service.
One example is second AM rush hour train from Danbury, train #1819, goes from Danbury to South Norwalk, then stops at Stamford and Grand Central. The train #1923 goes to Bridgeport, then on the main line timetable, expresses to Stamford where it ends, and a transfer is available to the train (from Danbury) to Grand Central. The other trains (1497, 1561, 1574, 1581, and 1588) are main line trains to or from New Haven.
