Service is to Hoboken, 71.9 miles (116 km); travel time is an hour and 40 minutes. Like all Port Jervis Line stations, this station serves commuters from a wide area. Many commuters use nearby NY 17 to reach the station from communities in Sullivan County such as Wurtsboro and Monticello. Two trains end at this station on weekdays, with one Hoboken-bound train departing Middletown as well. The station is located in the latter municipality, along the Erie Railroad Graham Line off NY 211 near its exit with NY 17 and not too far from the Galleria at Crystal Run, a popular local shopping mall. However, while the mall and other large retailers such as Sam's Club are visible from the station, there is no provision for pedestrian traffic on any of the roads leading to them. Middletown Station was originally built as an Erie Railway Station along the Erie Main Line on James Street. Today the former Erie Depot is the Thrall Library.[2]The MTA recently concluded improvements to the station similar to those found at other Port Jervis Line stations to the east: decorative lighting, an elevated platform for access by passengers in wheelchairs, and expanded paid parking. In a switch from the other stations to receive this amenities, the platform roof at Middletown is green rather than red, platform light poles are brown instead of green and the wheelchair platform is not under the roof. While other Metro-North stations such as Cortlandt and Southeast are named after the towns in which they are located, this is the only one to include "Town of ..." in its official name, to avoid longstanding confusion with the nearby hamlet in Ulster County. Station layoutThis station has one track and a low-level side platform.
