Glen Rock-Main Line (NJT Main Line)

Glen Rock-Main Line, and is one-fifth of a mile east down Rock Road from Glen Rock-Boro Hall on the Bergen County Line. The Main and Bergen County lines rejoin each other approximately one-mile north of the station. These two stops are so close together that it is assumed that passengers will walk between, so tickets can’t be purchased between the two Glen Rock Stations or from this station to stops on the Bergen County Line (all other station combinations, priced by default for a transfer at Secaucus Junction can be purchased between Bergen County Line stations and Main Line stations).

The station consists of two 5 car low-level platforms that start at the level-crossing of Rock Road and run south. The Hoboken-bound platform contains a historic stone station house that was built in 1905, the overhangs of this building covers the station’s two TVMs. The station hosue windows out to the platform are boarded-up with the streetside window intact. There are no other coverings for waiting passengers. The depot leads out to a 150 space parking lot, accessed from Rock Road. Parking along the Suffern-bound platform is in 51 angled parking spaces that is just angled parking along Main Street parallel to the platform.

A sign at the entrance to the station simply says Glen Rock Station, nothing about Main Line, historically this may have been true since the ex-Eire Main Line was more important than the Bergen County Line

Streetside of the depot, only the windows out to the platform are boarded-up
