Metropark — Local services in Woodbridge Township

I caught the 609 and sat with my daughter in the quite car. The conductor made sure I understood quite car! The only seats available for the 2 tickets I purchased was behind a woman and her loud child. Which being a mother of 5 grown kids I know enough to understand you do not put children in quite places.

That's not half of the problem. My daughter could not fit into her seat and let the table up because the woman with the small infant of maybe 8 months that couldn't be quite if God said hush, well she was laying in our laps.

The conductor obviously scared of woman from different races than his own did not keep the rules equal and just smiled saying shhh to the baby

My daughter shoved the table into its closed position and that pushed the seat up. I tried to complain and all I got was an excuse from reservations and told to tell the scared conductor

I have been on trains delayed from break downs I have had to wait hours on delayed trains I was even on the train that died just after hitting the Dallas drop and had to walk the tracks to catch the bus

Nothing hurts me as bad as nasty disrespectful greedy people

New jersey is not the place for men who are scared to do their jobs

I would have given 3 stars, but consistent delayed trains with overpriced tickets AND an increased parking fee has made me find another place elsewhere. Good luck trying to commute during work hours here.

Nowadays, I take the 320 North Bergen bus line. It's right outside Lincoln Tunnel and only costs $10, which includes BOTH parking & round-trip bus tickets. Granted, tunnel traffic is rough (don't use this bus for the morning commute or after 4pm) during peak times. But I only go to the city on weekends. This parking lot leaves something to be desired, but I save a lot of money by doing this way rather than paying $21.50 in fare here, plus a $6 parking fee, for trains that are...

Good basic infrastructure of the station. Connections to N.Y. as well as long distance trains. Frequency low on weekends. Platforms are good. Space for covered sitting with heating and cooling available. Announcements help new commuters. Bus connectivity is low. Ticket wending machines available. So less queue. Rest rooms available near waiting area with food, drinks and newspaper available though costly. No Drinking water available. huge Parking area available but costly. Also heavy traffic around the station during peak hours causes lots of delays. Commuter pick up drop area available with free parking for 20 mins. Any pickup or drop in roads around station not designated for pick up drop is an offence ticketed if police around. Bicycle parking stand available. Elevators available both at station and in parking lot. Direct entrance from parking lot on 3rd floor to...
