If you havent signed a lease yet, Harrison would be a horrible choice for that commute.
Also, you got a job at Bloomberg but cant figure out Google Maps? WTF happened to their standards

You are talking about two different issues.
No one said wait on the platform.
OP said:
>If you are going where the line is you are in the wrong place. Use the lower concourse to board.
There are 5-8 stair/escalators onto each platform. There is no reason for everyone to wait at the one in the center of the new building.
You can still wait at the other 7 for everyone to get off before going down

Someone riding Amtrak for the first time is probably not familiar with how bags work and what needing assistance means

(Men)
NJT 7th ave waiting area has 2 stalls, 4 urinals, medium sized seating area
LIRR waiting area has like 10 urinals, cant remember the stalls, small seating area
NJT 8th ave waiting area (old Amtrak) has the most seating, 10 or so urinals, 5 stalls.
Moynihan does not have access to all tracks that NJT uses

I would simply read the article that explains how the ticketed room closes early and at random.

Bullshit. Boston has chairs. Newark has chairs. Philly has chairs. Theyre all usable.

Amtrak tells you to arrive a full hour early if you have a bag.
>When should I arrive at the station?
>Unless you're taking the Auto Train, plan to arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled departure. If you need assistance with baggage and/or ticketing, we recommend you arrive 60 minutes early.

> the train can’t just park there for 10-15 minutes and let people board at their own pace. I really don’t think you take Amtrak lol.
Sounds like youve never taken Amtrak. They all have a 20 minute layover at Penn, including a complete crew change.

Keeping the blue line means if there is a crash, the city can be sued. Normally they are immune, but that assumes they follow the federal guidelines
