Waldwick Station is a New Jersey Transit rail station served by Main Line and Bergen County Line trains. It is located in Waldwick, New Jersey, United States. The station is located at the intersection of West Prospect Street, Lafayette Place and Hewson Avenue. The Waldwick Station is the terminus for many Bergen County Line trains and Waldwick Yard is just past the station. The Waldwick Yard is used to layover trains that terminate (or originate) in Waldwick.
On the winter of 2006, the ground broke for a new shelter on the southbound platform, which was completed in the summer of 2006. The shelter is used so that southbound passengers can wait inside and people can buy train tickets in there as well.[citation needed]
The Waldwick Community Alliance[5] has leased the historic station building for 25 years until 2034, and intends to restore it and start up a museum inside.[6][7]
