    Don't take the bolt bus! They are unorganized and inconsiderate.

    The other tips here are accurate. Avoid Newark Penn if you can especially after dark.

    Seattle Coffee Roasters has decent coffee - should hold you over until Dunkin Donuts is open.

    Be very careful traveling late nights alone. This station is like the deps of hell. So much display of poverty, substance abuse, and mental health issues untreated. Yuck

    If you smoke, try smoking in the back of the station or risk being bombarded for cigs.

    If you want to get to the airport on the cheap use the 62 bus instead of the train. $1.50 compared to +$5.00?
