    If you live in Baltimore, you can appreciate the beauty of this old train station. It is the main…read moretrain station in Baltimore and was designed by New York architect Kenneth MacKenzie Murchison. As I said, it is old and was built in 1911 in the Beaux-Art style. Thankfully, there has been some renovations that were completed in 2024 that included a newly polished façade, refurbished windows, new roof, and upgraded lighting. You can now see the beautiful color of the green tiles that were part of the original design of the station that have been hidden for years. It was wonderful to see our local train station restored to its former glory. When you look at the front, you will see five rounded openings and three central archways that are used as the entrances to the station with sets of triple doors. When you step inside, do look up and take in the beautiful, domed, stained-glass skylights. Moving along, there is a waiting area for passengers with old wooden benches. Thankfully, there are elevators to take you down to the tracks if you need it. What is still ugly to me, but fine for others, is the sculpture out front. It just does not go with the beauty of this train station. It was placed there in 2004 and sculpted by Jonathan Borofsky as the centerpiece of a re-designed plaza in front of Penn Station. It is a 51-foot-tall aluminum statue, named Male/Female. You be the judge if it belongs here or not! We used the Red Cap Service at Penn Station in Baltimore to catch our Acela train to New York. Tracey, the Red Cap, was such a help to us. She expertly took us and our luggage down to the train with plenty of time to board, store our luggage in the train car, and get us settled. We were in the quiet car, which we appreciated. Although this Acela was not one of the new trains, we had an uneventful ride to New York with no delays due to the hot weather.

    Sometimes I pick up or drop off from this station. Parking for pickup or drop off out front is…read moremellow, not hectic like airports as not nearly as many people coming and going. For quick pick up there's no charge or at least I haven't paid anything. The bathrooms every time have been clean every time I visited and the historic building as well maintained. Boarding Amtrak is also relaxed compared to airports with security and the massive crowds. In the north east corridor I often ride the train as it's just easier particularly between Baltimore, DC Philly, New York and Boston.

    Small train station located next to Baltimore light rail, Camden Yard baseball field, and several…read morebig name hotels. Also very close to the convention center. This station services the commuters of Baltimore working in Washington DC. It also makes stops at several towns along the route. One way ticket costs $8. The small lobby was clean and well lit at night. Only problem is the limited operating hours. The last train leave Baltimore to DC at 8:05 a.m. The 1st train leaves DC at 4:13 p.m. for commuters going home. There are no services in between those two times. If you plan accordingly, it is a cheap way to travel to DC from Baltimore for sight touring.

    So I've been thoroughly sick of the Penn Line here recently - the trains are always breaking down,…read morelate, etc. I decided to attempt getting to work on the Camden line instead; it turns out that it's actually better for me in some ways. The Camden MARC station is right on the back end of the Light Rail - all I have to do is hop off the train in the morning, and there I am, no walking, no inconvenience. There's only two tracks, so the train will come in on one or the other. There's a small waiting room for those who don't want to freeze to death. And the conductors seem to be a lot friendlier on this line as well, so that's a plus. There are a couple of negatives that prevent this from being a 5-star review: - The Camden line itself doesn't run enough trains. There's maybe 4 or 5 in the morning, 3 at night - that's it. I'm surprised, as this line goes through Laurel, which is really heavily populated. - The Camden line runs those awful single-level cars where everyone's squished into their seats. It's rare to get a bi-level car, but when you do, there's nothing better. This line is much quieter than Penn (despite having almost as many passengers) and, in my opinion, better run. If it was convenient to me in the afternoon I'd use it (unfortunately it takes twice as long to get home), but for the morning run it's perfect - I get off at Greenbelt, transfer to the Green line on WMATA, that's it - no more fussing around at Union Station trying to fight the masses on the Red line.... Love me some Camden.
