Access: Access to the TTC is via the ticket office and footbridge. The platforms are open and easy to take photographs from. Trains can be seen for up to two miles away, looking north, and a half mile looking south. Photo opportunities are limited outside of the station area, because of the high bridge walls and fences, and the plethora of overhead line equipment. Summing up: if you are a passenger train freak, this is your dream come true, and 99% electric! Take your video camera. Add this station to your annual holiday for a couple of days. Upside: lots of trains and cheap commuter travel to New York City, Camden and Philadelphia. Fast food outlets at the TTC. Downside: very near some unsavoury areas. Expensive to park your car for the day. Gets hot in the summer months. Additional info: there is also a West Trenton Railroad station which is located about two miles to the northwest of the TTC. We have not visited this railroad site.
