Williams Bridge (Metro-North station)

The Williams Bridge (also known as Williams Bridge - East 210th Street) Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of the Williamsbridge section of The Bronx via the Harlem Line. It is from Grand Central Terminal and is located at the intersection of Gun Hill Road and Webster Avenue. Service at Williams Bridge is hourly. Due to its short platform length, only the doors of four cars open for passengers.
This station is located in the Zone 2 Metro-North fare zone.
==History==
Rail service in Williams Bridge can be traced as far back as 1842 with the establishment of the New York and Harlem Railroad, which became part of the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad in 1864 and eventually taken over by the New York Central Railroad. Williams Bridge Station itself, which was originally built sometime in the 19th Century, originally had a station house on the southeast corner of the Gun Hill Road bridge and even had a turntable. From 1920 through the 1970s, it was in close proximity to the 210th Street – Williamsbridge elevated station of the IRT Third Avenue Line.〔(3rd Ave El just south of the northbound platform of the 210th St Station, looking south at the NYC Harlem Branch by Vic Gordon (NYCSubway.org) )〕 In fact, the line itself used to curve from Webster Avenue over Gun Hill Road before terminating at Gun Hill Road station on the IRT White Plains Road Line to the east. Because of this, the Gun Hill Road bridge over the Harlem Line was a two-level bridge until the Third Avenue Line was abandoned in 1973.〔(April 1973 View of 3rd Ave. el from upper level by Kenneth Palter (NYCSubway.org) )〕
As with many NYCRR stations in the Bronx, the station became a Penn Central station once the NYC & Pennsylvania Railroads merged in 1968. Penn Central's continuous financial despair throughout the 1970s forced them to turn over their commuter service to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. The station and the railroad were turned over to Conrail in 1976, and eventually became part of the MTA's Metro-North Railroad in 1983.
