Southeast is a Metro-North Railroad station (formerly known as Brewster North) serves the residents of Southeast, New York via the Harlem Line. Trains leave for New York City every hour, and about every 30 minutes during rush hour. It is the terminus of the Harlem Line electrified service and is the connection point for diesel trains to Wassaic outside rush hours (when trains to/from points north go directly to Grand Central). It is 53.2 miles (86 km) from Grand Central Terminal and travel time to Grand Central is approximately one hour, 27 minutes. The current terminal complex opened in 1980 as a delayed replacement for the Dykeman's station, closed a decade earlier, and took its current name in October 2003.

This station is the first/last station in the Zone 7 Metro-North fare zone.

Just south of the station is Metro-North's Brewster Yard, and trains either beginning or ending their routes here can be seen snaking to and from it before or afterwards.

The extensive parking at the station is fed by a wide, one-mile (1.6-km) access road known as Independence Way that connects to NY 312 right next to its interchange with Interstate 84, making it very convenient to reach. The station traffic has led to the construction of a shopping plaza and Home Depot along the road at the crest of the rise between the exit and the station; it can easily be seen when approaching the exit along I-84 eastbound.
