One star taken away for the dirty conditions that could easily be solved with maintenance/cleaning. That being said, you've got access to PATCO to get to center city Philly in a matter of minutes. Looking for the Riverline to head north to Trenton (where connections to Amtrak and the NJ Transit NYC-bound NE corridor train are found)? Then you must head across the street to the "broadway" station. The riverline platform is street level and easy to find. Cops are EVERYWHERE. At least they were at 3 pm on a Monday (can't speak to night time). I even heard a local lament their presence, implying it precluded a business transaction from taking place. Your nose may encounter the typical smells of human life here. Again, it gets the job done. Don't be a snob, use common sense. and you'll get where you need to go.

I had walked over from the Philly side and had no desire to walk back so we decided to take the train back. Not very user friendly. Unlike most other modern public transportation where I can scan my cell to Apple Pay at the gate, I had to go to this archaic box machine to buy a ticket. It was so particular, complicated and then even difficulty to pay. If someone was in a rush, I can see this making them late. When you get down to the sublevel, you will not have any reception. I noticed some people hang on the stairs so they can see the train and access their phones. This would be bad if you are relying on your devices for direction. Also the northbound and southbound tracks were not clear. Hope you are good at reading the schedule and don't get on the wrong train. My coworker and I got on the correct train and we made it back to Philly Safely. We staggered in different rows so we can both get a window seat view and enjoy the ride back.

But overall I'm happy because it's located in a nice area. It's also an express stop so it's open during COVID while other stations are closed. Conveniently, there's a PNC branch located next to the parking lot which is great if you are grabbing cash to spend in Chinatown- which frequently does not take card. I have no issues parking here. And as far as the people that frequent the station, they are not ruffians. And the station is kept clean. It's also so close to Philadelphia that you'll be there after about a 10-minute ride. Like many of the PATCO stations, waiting on the platform outside provides a nice breeze and lots of shade during the summer time!

Cost wise, if you are traveling solo, it is cheaper than driving with gas and tolls. If there's a few of us, we just consider it the cost of adventure travel. The train station is a bit tricky to find, as it's behind the big anchor stores. Parking overnight is OK; of course, park under a light, just in case. You buy your ticket at the machine, which is located inside a shelter, also useful if it's rainy, hot, humid, snowing, thundering, etc. Go online to check the schedule if you are smart so you don't have too long of a wait til the train arrives. Once you have your ticket, keep it on you and stick it on the little ticket slot on top of your seat. The conductor will swing by at some point before you arrive at your destination to punch it.

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.

You can also link to the Broad Street Spur or the El here. If you're out late at night on a weekend, you can expect massive crowds. I can't begin to tell you how many times drunken people heading back across the bridge have casually walked into me without apology while I waited for the train. For this reason, I prefer the other stations -- in particular 15/16 and Locust -- much more. Otherwise, this spot is decent. I'm glad it exists, but I wish it could undergo a remodel.

I used my GPS to direct me to the correct street for my final destination. Then, I asked a police officer on the street level to confirm my location. My second visit was me leaving town to the airport. I asked a gate person how to enter the terminal. She was super nice. No issues here.
