The Mount Vernon East Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of Mount Vernon, New York via the New Haven Line (not to be confused with Mount Vernon West on the Harlem Line). The station is the first station after the New Haven Line splits from the Harlem Line and is the only station on the line before it changes from third-rail power to overhead catenary power, which takes place between Mount Vernon East and Pelham station. After Pelham, the New Haven Line joins the Northeast Corridor at New Rochelle.

Mount Vernon East is 14 miles from Grand Central Terminal and the average travel time from Grand Central is 29 minutes.
