Pennsylvania Station, Newark

Busy Platforms

The platforms of Newark's Penn Station are very busy, with trains connecting Newark to Manhattan, South Jersey, Trenton,  Philadelphia and Washington, DC.  Four railroads currently use the station: NJ Transit, Amtrak, PATH (a commuter line between Jersey and Manhattan) and the Newark "Subway" (more like an underground trolley!).
