[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] Aside from obvious ones such as New York Penn Station, and while to me it is quite OK, I'm afraid [URL=http://www.trainweb.org/usarail/stamford.htm] Stamford CT[/URL] could go down with some around here as a "bad bad". Suffice to say, it is a relatively new structure (20 yrs) but devoid of any aesthetics. Although Amtrak has a designated wait area, if you don't know exactly where you are going or are laden with luggage and children, enjoy life. But the "max" I can imagine anyone having to be there is a half-hour; Corridor trains are almost always "more or less" on time, and with Metro North operating on half-hour frequency, that is the max a connecting passenger would need to hang around. But it does have plusses; taxicabs, and municipal busses are "right there", and there is plenty of reasonably priced parking available in a connected garage. Hertz and Avis auto rentals are literally 'accross the street', but private vehicle passenger pick ups can be "sport'. All told, hardly a facility to enhance the experience of a Long Distance train trip, but it does its intended job quite well. [/QB][/QUOTE]
