Be very on your toes, aware of potential aggressive drivers. I get it people want to go to work or home, but please realize others do so more carefully. As for the station, not many 30 minute parking spots. These can be crucial, when waiting on a person. There are I believe ten spots. That's clearly not enough. Platform is quite clean. Like many places with transit, there are some characters, but feel completely safe here. Definitely enjoy VRE!

All with your car tucked in the train with you. We were running late and was the last car to be loaded :-| I definitely would not recommend. We got inside and walked past the empty waiting area to our train car. We did get the coach which only has recline seats. It was cool because my back was hurting :-( Next time for sure I'll do an upgraded version. The dining cart wasn't too far and that was good because I'm a snacker. The prices weren't too bad as I went twice for snacks lol. We arrived at a good time and it didn't take too long o get our car. I'll definitely try it again, just an upgraded ticket :-)

VRE trains won't win speed awards, but are comfortable, and usually do well with time accuracy. Have found their employees solid. This station is mostly covered from elements. The platform is ADA compliant. This can be a busy station, so do check the parking situation. Being right off 95, it certainly is convenient. Fare cards can be bought and validated, and overall this works.

I do like that there are Amtrak and more freight trains to see. Being an enthusiast, if you are into trains, this is good for us. The station area inside is a little cramped.
