Kent Road was a station on the Danbury Branch of the New Haven Line. Penn Central opened the station in 1976 to serve Perkin-Elmer's headquarters in Wilton. It was located on the Wilton-Norwalk line, 46.2 miles (74.4 km) from Grand Central Terminal, south of a grade crossing with Kent Road. The New Haven Railroad previously had a station immediately north of the crossing. The station consisted of a low-level platform and a small shelter. Metro-North discontinued service here on January 16, 1994. It is notable for being the last station on the New Haven Line to be abandoned, and the only one closed during the Metro-North era. No station structures remain at the site.
