Mountain Station
As a result, the grade crossing of Montrose Avenue at the eastbound end of the station was eliminated and the roadway was raised onto a bridge.[2] At the westbound end of the station, the Mountain House Road crossing was eliminated entirely and a pedestrian walkway was built.The walkway was removed during the late 1970s as part of the re-electrification project for the line, however, access to Montrose Avenue is still available due to stairs on the platform.[citation needed] At present, as in the past, most trains that stop here proceed onto, or have originated in, Hoboken.Most Midtown Direct trains into New York City bypass Mountain Station, but a large number do stop at the main station in South Orange, which is less than a mile to the south (timetable west).
