This train is pretty cool until Teddy from the Bergen Lafayette homeless shelter gets his beggin ass on! Lol
Please have your Metro/Smartlink out BEFORE you reach the turnstiles.
Rinna EscamillaApril 23, 2010Anyone else notice there are no trash cans in the station? From the moment you step anywhere in the plaza all the way down, not a can. Make sure you throw anything away in the cans on Bergen or Sip.
Wait for the next train during rush hour..they come every 3 mins if that... it's ridiculous how many people I've had literally sit on me because of how #Thirst they were to get a seat...
Be prepared at 3 am Monday the fare will be increased to $2.25
Bring noseplugs especially when train is full with Indians
During AM rush, between 7-8 front of train to WTC usually has seats in first three cars.
LuisOctober 9, 2010Often the stop where you have to get off and transfer when heading to WTC or Hoboken after a red bull match. Looks like a train station in a cave. Chill.
On weekdays for the 33rd st train: Christopher st-last car 9th/33rd-front car 14th/23rd-middle car.
Marcos VelezMay 27, 2011Don't waste your time waiting for the train! Look up the next departure with http://nextpath.info. Quick and easy.
Hey able-bodied jackasses-- unless you have a stroller or are in a wheelchair, take the damned escalator!
You snooze, you lose when it comes to getting a seat.
NWK-33rd St. Train directly in front of you if your on NWk - WTC Train.
One of the banks of escalators from the plaza to the street level isn't working. Be prepared to climb the stairs.
Trains are pretty much always on schedule. Reliable transportation!
Track 1 Newark to WTC Track 2 Journal Square to 33rd St (change at Newport for Hoboken service) Track 3 arriving 33rd st Track 4 WTC to Newark
Memorize the spots where the train doors open so that when the next train arrives you can be the first to get a side seat.
Gabriel SaucedaSeptember 9, 2011#Sept11 7a-11a NWK-WTC terminates at Ex Pl. Take JSQ-33 (via HOB) to NYC Subway for travel to WTC during this time.
Bansri BhattMarch 12, 2012There are literally NO garbage receptacles...throw your trash away before you even go near the station! Also, remember to shower everyday.
Another day of living like a New Yorker without actually being one.
Did you notice...there's a PathAlert every 10 minutes. What's going on with the Path these last few weeks??
The monthly Smart Link card saves so much time in the morning.
They don't like trash cans here. There are none. They prefer you just toss it wherever you want!
There are two different 87 buses going opposite directions, sometimes on the same platform 5 minutes apart. Be careful!
Pretty boring and somewhat scary. Not really anywhere to go or do. Just a weird station.
Frequency of trains after 11 pm and on the weekends is low.- Nobody follows the stand on R pass on L on the escalators...they appear upset when I say, "Excuse me, please." Aaaargghh! I have a train to catch, you know?? O_o
Avoid being bitten by the mentally unstable by quickly darting into the next available car.- By 2:30 pm the metrocard machines need to be emptied try to avoid them at all costs
Paolo SotoOctober 29, 2011Skip Deli Plus in the PATH Station- too expensive and crappy service by some of their employees- there are better and cheaper delis in the PATH station and around Journal Square!
Stay toward the rear cars if you don't wanna be overly crowded and uncomfortable.
There are no trash cans for a reason...u ever notice how clean the path train is??? Most likely because no one can bring anything on the train
The trains here are great/evil. They leave on time when you're running late but leave late when you need to be there on time.
WTC usually leaves before 33rd street. Both go to Grove, which is good to know when it is cold and your train isn't here.
Dave KupratisAugust 3, 2011For anybody complaining about there be no garbage cans anywhere in the stations it's part of their policy. Read up on it. Your not even supposed to bring drinks although I still do
don't buy multi-ride passes here. overpriced at normal fare.
