<p>I’m curious about how to catch an Amtrak train out of Newark to go south to Baltimore or Washington. The train from Penn Station that stops in Newark around 7:30 pm goes on to Baltimore and Washington. Where exactly do you catch it? On the north side of the tracks, I assume? Since there is no real station in Newark (no ticket booth or staff), students just wait on the platform with tickets? In the winter, they stand alone in the dark? Are there typically other students getting on all the time?</p>
