The South Norwalk Metro-North Railroad station is one of three stations serving the residents of Norwalk, Connecticut via the New Haven Line and is the more significant of the three. 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.

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.
