Middletown Station was originally built as an Erie Railway Station along the Erie Main Line on James Street. Today the former Erie Depot is the Thrall Library.[2]

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority recently concluded improvements to the station similar to those found at other Port Jervis Line stations to the east: decorative lighting, an elevated platform for access by passengers in wheelchairs, and expanded paid parking. In a switch from the other stations to receive these amenities, the platform roof at Middletown is green rather than red, platform light poles are brown instead of green and the wheelchair platform is not under the roof.

While other Metro-North stations such as Cortlandt and Southeast are named after the towns in which they are located, this is the only one to include "Town of ..." in its official name, to avoid longstanding confusion with the nearby hamlet in Ulster County.
