The Danbury Metro-North Railroad station serves residents of Danbury, Connecticut and surrounding areas at the north terminal of the Danbury Branch of the New Haven Line. Since the Danbury Branch is a single track, most service is a shuttle to South Norwalk with three peak-hour runs to Grand Central; service to South Norwalk takes approximately 47 minutes, service to Grand Central 1 hour, 55 minutes. The station is 64.9 miles to Grand Central; it is adjacent to both the Danbury Railway Museum and the hub for Housatonic Area Regional Transit. The station has 147 parking spaces, all owned by the state.^[1]
