Hawthorne is a rail station on New Jersey Transit's Main Line. It is located in Hawthorne, New Jersey and is one of five stations that serve Passaic County.
The station platforms are not adjacent to any through road in Hawthorne.
- The northbound platform is located near Vincent Avenue, but the platform is not accessible from that street.The station's parking lot is located off the corner of Washington Street and Washington Avenue
- The southbound platform main entrance is from the station parking lot. A secondary entrance is on a dead-end street, Washington Place.
- Ticket machines are at the main entrace to the southbound platform (at the parking lot).
- A grade crossing connects the two platforms adjacent to the parking lot, i.e., a pedestrian can walk through the lot, enter the southbound platform, and immediately cross both the platform and the rails to reach the northbound platform. There are railway crossing signals at this pedestrian crossing, similar to those at street crossings, to allow for safe passage.
Hawthorne Station is to be one of two terminus points on the proposed (but dormant) Passaic-Bergen Rail Line plan, a light-rail system that will run from Hawthorne through Paterson, Elmwood Park, and Hackensack.[3]
