This station was the original terminal of the Staten Island Railway from 1860 until 1886. The station was known as Vanderbilt's Landing, and was used as a transfer point for passengers going to Manhattan via ferries to South Ferry. HistoryThis station was originally known as Vanderbilt's Landing and opened on April 23, 1860 with the opening of the Staten Island Railway, and was the northern terminal for the line. The line extended from Vanderbilt's Landing to Eltingville.[1][2][3] The station was also once known as Vanderbilt Avenue.[4] It also included a ferry port with ferries to Stapleton, Tompkinsville, and South Ferry in Manhattan.[5] The port was replaced by Saint George Terminal on March 7, 1886, which was also the day before Clifton became the northern terminus of the South Beach Branch, a status it maintained until 1953. Station layoutClifton station is located at Norwood Avenue and Bay Street on the main line. It is located on an embankment with side platforms and beige canopies. The SIR's Clifton Yard is next to the northbound track, with yard leads and signals north of Clifton station. South of the station are the remains of the South Beach Branch turnout and a dismantled bridge.[6] To the south, a spur on a pair of I-beams on concrete pillars is the location of an old coal, concrete, and lumber business. South of this station, the SIR main line turns southwest to Tottenville, and no longer runs along the harbor front. Due to the wide space from trains caused by the platform's curvature, the last car for St. George-bound trains do not open here.[7]
ExitsThe north end has exits on both platforms that lead to Bay Street. The southbound platform has winding stairs to Townsend Avenue while the northbound platform has stairs under the right-of-way to Norwood Avenue. The northbound platform also has a second staircase on Bay and Edgewater Streets, which is not present on the southbound side.[8] On Bay Street (sidewalk level) and facing the platform above, are remains of the original steps up to the old station platform, which became inaccessible when the platforms were extended in the 1990s. On the southbound side there is a station house on the outside, but only a shelter on the platform. Some of the boarded up windows and layout of the brick shelter suggest that it was originally a station house. {{-|left}}References1. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.thethirdrail.net/0201/sirt4.html| title = SIRT The Essential History| author = Irvin Leigh and Paul Matus| page = 4| date = December 23, 2001| accessdate = March 3, 2009| deadurl = yes| archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20090104105848/http://thethirdrail.net/0201/sirt4.html| archivedate = January 4, 2009| df = }} 2. ^Poster for opening of Staten Island Railway 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1860/08/25/news/staten-island-news.html|title=Staten Island News.|date=August 25, 1860|newspaper=The New York Times|access-date=November 18, 2015|issn=0362-4331}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://image.silive.com/home/silive-media/width960/img/advance/photo/2017/08/07/-d802fe3eb02fec80.JPG|title=Vanderbilt Avenue Staten Island Rapid Transit station|last=|first=|date=|website=silive.com|access-date=February 25, 2018|via=Staten Island Museum}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.brooklynrail.net/images/historic_maps/Tunnel_NYC_Area_Railroad_Map_1860.jpg|title=New York City and Vicinity Rail Map 1860|last=|first=|date=|website=brooklynrail.net|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=December 24, 2017}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://gretschviking.net/GOSIRTPage1.htm|title=Gary Owen's SIRT Page|last=Owen|first=Gary|date=|website=gretschviking.net|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|accessdate=March 1, 2009}} 7. ^{{Cite web|url=http://web.mta.info/nyct/service/ServChanges_Grasmere.htm|title=Please use the first three cars to enter or exit the train at the following stations|last=|first=|date=|website=web.mta.info|publisher=Metropolitan Transportation Authority|language=en|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=December 24, 2017}} 8. ^{{NYCS const|exits}} External links{{Commonscat inline|Clifton (Staten Island Railway station)}}
