Little Falls

Little Falls is an active commuter railroad station in the eponymous township of Little Falls, Passaic County, New Jersey. The station, located at the end of Union Boulevard, serves trains of NJ Transit's Montclair–Boonton Line only during rush hour. Trains go between New York Penn Station, Hoboken

Terminal to Dover and Hackettstown. The station is one of several stops west of Great Notch Yard and east of Denville station that does not have electrified railroad service, resulting in less frequent service. Little Falls station contains a single low-level side platform and the former Erie Railroad-built brick station depot. Railroad service in Little Falls began on January 1, 1873 with the opening of the Montclair Railway, a short line that would become the New York and Greenwood Lake Railway, a subsidiary of the Erie Railroad. Originally one of four stations in the township built by the Erie Railroad, Little Falls is the last remaining station after Great Notch closed on January 17, 2010. Montclair State University station is also within the municipality.
