The Melrose Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of the Melrose section of The Bronx via the Harlem Line. It is 6.1 miles (9.8 km) from Grand Central Terminal and is located in an open cut beneath Park Avenue at its intersection with East 162nd Street, six tenths of a mile from Yankee Stadium. Service at Melrose is very limited; every 30 minutes peak hours, every two hours otherwise. Normally, when trains stop at this station, only the first two cars open its doors.

This station is the first/last station in the Zone 2 Metro-North fare zone, and is the first/last station of the CityTicket inter-city ticket zone.
