'''Kensico Cemetery''' was a station on the [[Harlem Line]] of the [[Metro-North Railroad]] which served the large cemetery of the same name which the line runs through. The station was similar to the still-existent and nearby [[Mount Pleasant (Metro-North station)|Mount Pleasant]] station in which it served friends and family of those buried there instead of actual commuters and saw only a few trains a day. Upon the electrification of the Harlem Line between [[North White Plains (Metro-North station)|North White Plains]] and [[Southeast (Metro-North station)|Brewster North]] in [[1984]], the station was closed given its redundancy to Mount Pleasant and the cost to modernize the station.
