Nicknamed "SoNo" by riders and staff, the station is the point where the Danbury Branch connects to the Northeast Corridor as well as a peak-hour terminal for some express trains (and the last stop for New Haven super-express runs before running non-stop to Grand Central Terminal. Just east of the station is the SONO Switch Tower Museum, a preserved switch tower which is open weekend afternoons during the summer months.
South Norwalk is 41 miles from Grand Central Terminal and the average travel time from Grand Central is 64 minutes though this varies depending on run and time of day.
The station has 816 parking spaces, none owned by the state.
