Reply to "New York Central Putnam Division"

The simple answer is never.  Rails to Lake Mahopac were abandoned before Metro North was created. 

IF you are thinking historically, here's a brief summary.  To reslly understand this, you should refer to the 1928 topo map.  Here's the link  docs.unh.edu/NY/cfls44nw.jpg - the NW segment of the Croton Falls quadrangle.

On the Punam Division, thre was a station in Mahopac. The 1905  employee timetable shows "Harlen R.R. Crossing" 1.15 miles south of Mahopac station.There was a branch of the Harlem Line from Golden's Bridge to Lake Mahopac, crossing the "Put" at that location.  It's original station in Mahopac (named "Lake Mahopac") was at a somewhat lower level slightly to the west of Mahopac on the PUT.
