Now this is what a subway station should be. Especially in Pittsburgh. They don't have many…read moreunderground stations, but this one definitely gives off the feels of a Subway. On the inside at least. Once you exit outside, that's a different story. You exit out to parking lots. That is until they build up the area around here when demand comes rolling in. To say that this serves the North Side is kind of a farce. It is more like the North Shore, and if you are up for the walk, the North Side. But, like I said, the feel of this makes it really feel like a proper station. The station is well underground and when you come up from the platform the first time, it feels like you are entering a glitzy building. You then have to come up once more to reach street level. It doesn't have as a great view like the last station on the line. But it does dump you out into an area that can get busy. Closer to PNC Park than it is to Heinz Field, short walk from the waterfront and the Warhol.

Part of the Pittsburgh Regional Transit light rail system, North Side serves the North Shore…read moreneighborhood and is within walking distance to PNC Park, the Warhol Museum, the National Aviary and the Allegheny Center. It's located not very heavily used by commuters but there are some. The station serves all three lines - the Red, Blue and Silver - between Allegheny Station (inbound) and Gateway Station (outbound) towards either South Hills Village or Library depending on which line. It is an underground station with escalators and elevators. The station is handicapped accessible. As an underground station, it is protected from the elements. An island platform with two tracks, it is at the end of the Allegheny River Tunnel which is quite cool. The station is part of the "free zone" so there is no ticket check here but there are ticket vending machines for those who might be traveling to stations that are in the "paid zone."

Oh my. This station is stuff of legends. Being a major transfer point for buses, there are always…read moresome award winning, sketchy people around this station. No matter the time of day. I can remember this place always having people around it and the number of stories about this station on the news. Such a breeding ground for weird ish in the city. Wasn't any different when I came through here. I intentionally got off at this station to venture out to grab a bite to eat. However, I should have stayed on a ways to find that bite. Exiting here you go down a what feels like a dreadful long hallway. That is after getting off in probably one of the darkest stations I have ever been to. You get closer and closer to the exit and noise, accompanied by a weird smell hits you. You then realize that that smell is not a smell you want to be smelling. That smell is the smell of unwashed, of public restrooms wherever you want, of too little cleaning. I will echo a few things here. Be aware of your surroundings. There is a lot going on here. Yes, there is a police presence here, but most times it feels like they are just passing through or don't care. Right inside the entrance, it is pretty, but don't let that false sense or welcoming blur your senses.

There…read moreare only 230 spaces and one of them has my Sprinter van today so that I can go into downtown for sightseeing. The station is handicapped accessible with ramps and highly readable signage indicating where we are and the next train to arrive. At 7:00 am, the platform was busy with commuters but there were plenty of seats on board the train. And because it is a junction where the Red and Blue and Silver lines stop, there are going to be multiple trains. I had a question for a staff person and so it was great that a very nice lady was working today. Why does the PRT app indicate "Not valid for rail"? Well, that's because the bar code can't be validated on the trains but she has the "validator" app and that's now all set. Washington Junction is indeed a junction where lines from Pittsburgh to Washington PA met up with lines from Roscoe PA. Note that you are only allowed to park in designated spaces. Anywhere else and your car might not be here when you return. Food and drink are not permitted on the train and if you're listening to something, you should be using earphones.

I'm assuming that this was meant to be the main transfer hub in the city when the ambition of the…read moresubway system was bigger than just running through Downtown. When this area was flooded with people on the regular. When Pittsburgh's population was higher. The station is set up where you can transfer to any of the three lines. That basically all go the same directions. It feels grand, it feels ready, but ultimately it feels underused. This station almost feels like a movie set or an attraction at an amusement park. Probably one of the cleanest stations I have ever been to. I really hope that Pittsburgh is able to finally get the T to look more like a T than a Who from Whoville. I also find it funny that the Steel Plaza Station doesn't really sit under the U.S. Steel Tower. But it is what it is.

The website was shabby, but I was always able to contact an associate to book a ride for me. It is a legit company, or at least they were. At the beginning of the fall semester, I went onto College Shuttle's "newly designed" website to pay for the Triple Play (two weekend trips and a holiday break). It was a pain to navigate since some buttons wouldn't work, but it was nothing I wasn't already used to. I paid $205 and then proceeded to try to book a ride. I couldn't do it (as usual) so I tried to contact an associate for help. For a couple of weeks, I attempted calling multiple phone numbers, DMing the company on both Facebook and the shabby website, emailing, and even asking people at both my school and Frostburg state - but nobody could tell me why this company was suddenly unresponsive after I already paid $205. Since then, I've disputed the payment with my bank and they gave me a temporary credit. I would hold off on trying to use this service until they release a statement saying what's been going on.

The driver and the company have been incredibly unprofessional. I would stay away from them at all costs.
