The Westport Metro-North Railroad station (also informally known as Saugatuck Station) is one of two New Haven Line stations serving the residents of Westport, Connecticut. It is located in the center of the Saugatuck section of town, a few miles south of downtown Westport; the station was named Westport & Saugatuck in timetables of the New Haven Railroad and the early years of its corporate successor, Penn Central.
Westport is 44.2 miles (71.1 km) from Grand Central Terminal and the average travel time from Grand Central is one hour, seven minutes, though this varies depending on run and time of day.
The station has 1,454 parking spaces, 1,126 of them owned by the state. The ticket office at this station was closed July 7, 2010 and tickets must be purchased from vending machines adjacent to the platforms.
