    Small parking lot that fills up early, usually before 7 am. The parking lot is so small, I'm not…read moresure how cars can pass each other, it feels like it's a one way road. The station itself is non-existent except for something akin to a bug shelter. There is no ticket office and there is only a money box for you to insert quarters (or an envelope for money). Following the directions on the SEPTA website, I did park my car for several nights at this station as I took the train to the airport - you basically need to insert an envelope and check into the parking payment thing that clearly states your car and how many nights you will be parked. Seems a bit primitive given our technology these days, but hey it worked! This is also the last stop in Zone 3, so anything beyond this is Zone 4 pricing which is a few bucks higher.

    This is just a train stop. Quite literally. There's no ticket booth, no customer service, nothing…read more Just a tiny open sitting area so don't expect to be sheltered from the elements (cold or hot) once you get here. There is parking but it's normally filled up with people commuting towards Philly. If you do want to park there, make sure to take quarters with you (4 to be exact) and find the big, thin, inconspicuous box with coin slots to drop in your quarters into the appropriate number to pay for parking. It's $1/day so that's nice. Also, make sure to take with you cash to pay for your fare because the train conductors don't take credit cards. Trains are normally not on time (aka late anywhere from 2-3 mins to 15-20 mins). This is what passes as public transportation here.

    The 30th Street Station (Or the Bill Gray Amtrak Station) is ALMOST as historic as it gets in…read morePhiladelphia IF you ignore that Philadelphia has Independence Hall, The Liberty Bell, the Betsy Ross House and Benjamin Franklin's Print Shop and the nation's first post office!...among a slew of other places! Philadelphia is the place to be during our country's 250th anniversary and any other time of the year! History is everywhere in Philadelphia and it's a beautiful place and beautiful people who truly welcome EVERYONE! And AMTRAK is just about the best way to get to Philadelphia! A piece of trivia, I used to work with the namesake of this station, and he probably used this station more than just about any other Philadelphian, to get back and forth to Washington, DC. It couldn't be easier to get from Philadelphia to Dc or New York or Boston than to hop on a train and let someone else do the driving!

    An update to my initial review:…read more I'm a fan of Amtrak, reliant on their service since I regularly travel between Philadelphia and NYC. The train takes less time than driving and saves us a fair amount of money. (Are you familiar with the price of parking in Manhattan?!) I generally pay the extra $3 to modify my ticket without penalty. Life happens and we've had to make changes more than once. Two weeks ago I realized something astonishing. With a major snowstorm hitting the northeast, I decided last minute to change my ticket from Tuesday to Sunday. I wanted to get back to PA. Posted fares were insane, literally priced more than an airline ticket. I was resigned to staying put in NY. For the fun of it, I checked several times and then .....voila! A fare posted at $219 an hour before, had dropped to $24! Four seats were available. I grabbed one. So my message is twofold: pay the extra couple of dollars for flexibility, AND if you're deterred by expensive tickets on a particular day, keep checking. It can change on a dime!
