Hawthorne is a rail station on New Jersey Transit's Main Line. It is located in Hawthorne, New Jersey and is one of five stations that serve Passaic County.

The station is situated on a plot of land that is not connected to any main road in Hawthorne. The station's parking lot, ticket machines, and southbound platform are located off of Washington Avenue, while the northbound platform is located off of Vincent Place. A grade crossing on the tracks allows passengers to cross from one platform to the other.

Hawthorne Station is to be one of two terminus points on the proposed Passaic-Bergen Rail Line, a light-rail system that will run from Hawthorne through Paterson, Elmwood Park, and Hackensack.[3]
