Pros: Absolutely awesome. The train was late as we were told it would be, due to work on the tracks. Cons: The station in Trenton was NOT accessible. I use a rolling walker and had a difficult time getting myself and luggage up to the platform, without the kind help of other passengers I would not have be able to get up. Plus the little waiting room and bathrooms were locked and it was a chilly morning. Plus another passenger, a young man with a lot of baggage and using crutches had the same problem as I did.
