The station depicted in a 1906 postcard

Dobbs Ferry station opened on September 29, 1849 with its origins as part of the Hudson River Railroad.<ref name="Sep1849" /> The current station house, which was built in 1889 by the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad, became a Penn Central station upon the merger between NYC and Pennsylvania Railroad in 1968 like many NYCRR stations in Westchester County, until it was taken over by Conrail in 1976, and then by Metro-North Railroad in 1983. It was restored between 2006 and 2008 by Metro-North.<ref>Template:Cite press release</ref> The station house is nowTemplate:When a local bar and grille.<ref>Hudson Social (Official site)</ref> Template:Clear left

Station layoutEdit

The station has two slightly offset high-level side platforms–each eight cars long. The two inner tracks not next to either platform are used by express trains, one of which does not include a third rail.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>Template:Rp
