125 Street Metronorth station is located in a neighborhood that is going through some gentrification, but the area is still a bit rough. I wouldn't recommend walking around at night. But the station itself, although a little run down, still has some of its beauty from earlier days. The waiting area on the main floor has beautifully maintained wood architecture. The bathrooms are often closed and that is an issue if nature calls, my feeling is they keep them locked to keep the drug users and homeless out of there. If you go outside, there is some pretty cool artwork on the old station's outside walls. The old station is right across the street.

Read moreTrain station has lots of trains stopping. Has 4 tracks on 2 platforms that are one level up. There are 2 elevators, to the right and just after you enter the train station, for handicap people, one for each platform. There are 2 sets of stairs in the back to each platform. There is a large display just as you enter, so look up and check which track you need, especially if you are in a BIG hurry. There are few more monitors that show the trains information. Also on each track there is a display on the next 4 trains arrival times. So you can double check that you are at the right place so will miss your train. This train station has both men and women bathrooms but they were locked when I was last at this train station, which was pasted midnight. I assume bathrooms are open during the day....
