Train station in Yonkers, New York, US

Yonkers station is a Metro North Railroad and Amtrak railroad station located near Getty Square in Yonkers, New York. It is served by Metro North Hudson Line commuter rail service and five Amtrak intercity services. The station building was constructed in 1911–1912, replacing an older structure.

The current station building was built in 1911 for the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad (NYC) in the Beaux Arts style. The architects were Warren and Wetmore, one of the firms responsible for Grand Central Terminal. It was meant to be a smaller version of Grand Central; Guastavino tiles are featured prominently in both stations. Upon the merger of the NYC and the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1968, the station became a Penn Central commuter rail station. By this time, intercity service to Yonkers had ended. Penn Central continued operating commuter travel until 1976, when it was taken over by Conrail, which in turn transferred the service to Metro North in 1983. Intercity service returned to Yonkers in 1989 after a two decade absence in an effort to revitalize the Saw Mill riverfront. In 2004, Metro North completed a $43 million restoration of the Yonkers station. The ticket office at the station closed on July 7, 2010, so that passengers must now buy their tickets from vending machines at street level. A Metro North Railroad Police substation is in the terminal on the ground floor. Amtrak's Berkshire Flyer began running on July 8, 2022, providing direct service to on summer weekends.

The station has two high level island platforms, each 10 cars long, serving the four track line. Metro North trains use all four tracks, while Amtrak trains generally use the inner tracks.
