The Derby-Shelton Metro-North Railroad station serves residents of Derby and Shelton, Connecticut via the Waterbury Branch of the New Haven Line. Located in Derby, Derby-Shelton is the last regular stop on the Waterbury Branch before it joins the Northeast Corridor. Through service to Bridgeport takes an average of 22 minutes though a peak hour run in each direction also stops at Stratford. The distance between Derby-Shelton and either of the next stops is the longest between any two stations on the Metro-North system (10.5 miles to Stratford, 15.1 miles to Bridgeport).

The station is 69.5 miles to Grand Central Terminal, with travel time there being an average of one hour, 54 minutes depending on transfer time at Bridgeport. Travel time to New Haven is an average of one hour, two minutes depending on transfer time.

Commuters make up the vast majority of riders using the station. The Connecticut Rail Commuter Council is a board created by the state to represent commuter's interests before Metro North and state officials.
