History

Redding station first opened as an original station on the Danbury and Norwalk Railroad in 1852.^[4] It was located on the west side of the track. A new structure serving as station, general store, and post office was later constructed on the east side of the tracks.^[4][5] It was replaced with a smaller concrete shelter slightly to the south in 1952; the older station remains standing and is used by local businesses.^[5] In 1999, Metro-North constructed a high-level platform and parking lot south of Long Ridge Road on the west side of the tracks.^[4][5]
