====Public transit==== The city has a [[New Rochelle (Metro-North station)|train station]] served by [[Metro-North Railroad|Metro North]] on the [[New Haven Line]] and [[Amtrak]] on the [[Northeast Corridor]] via its ''[[Northeast Regional]]'' train.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.amtrak.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Amtrak%2Fam2Station%2FStation_Page&c=am2Station&cid=1080080550830&ssid=98 |title=Amtrak β Stations β New Rochelle, NY<!-- Bot generated title --> |access-date=September 25, 2004 |archive-date=September 25, 2004 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040925221224/http://www.amtrak.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Amtrak%2Fam2Station%2FStation_Page&c=am2Station&cid=1080080550830&ssid=98 |url-status=live }}</ref> The city is also served by the [[Bee-Line Bus System]] for local service. [[Adirondack Trailways]] provides interstate bus service. Rail transit began in New Rochelle around 1848, when the New York & New Haven opened their line along Long Island Sound. After the [[American Civil War|Civil War]], proposals for new railroads reached new levels. Banking that the city would continue to grow northward, the [[New York, Westchester and Boston Railway]] Company was established to serve the large populations moving to the suburbs. Two main lines were built as part of the NYW&B; the Port Chester line and the [[White Plains, New York|White Plains]] line. While the populations of some communities served by the NYW&B did grow between 1912 and 1937, the growth was not sufficient or fast enough to provide adequate business for the railroad, and service was discontinued on December 31, 1937.
