I definitely second the notion to backtrack to Trenton if the garage and gravel lots are all full. I wonder if nearby businesses sometimes open their lots on special days. I made the mistake once of not realizing it was a Phillies/Yankees weekday matinee in NY and pulled up around 9 at Hamilton with not a single spot open, yet there were endless streams of people coming from somewhere and walking to the station along Sloan Avenue. My second mistake was foolishly thinking I might stand a chance at Princeton Junction with the scattered surface lots. I would have saved myself at least 45 minutes had I immediately headed to Trenton.

Do any of you have experience with Rahway Station? There are a # of opportunities to get back to that station after the show. And then I would drive 90 mins to Philly.

If you would drive to Rahway you're better of just driving to Secaucus, exit 15x on the turnpike and there is a parking lot. That station is the first stop out of NY Penn Station and almost every train stops there.

Finally have a plan.
We are going to drive from Philly to Trenton. I then purchased the AMTRAK ticket back to Trenton from Penn Station. That leave PS at 11.15. If I miss that, I will have to take the NJT to Trenton at 12.14. And then an hour drive home. Thanks for your help!

I live outside of Philadelphia. If you cover my Hamilton ticket, I will pick you up at your door and drop you off there afterward... ![]()

You could just book a cheap hotel room. Or am I being dumb

Even a cheap hotel room in NY can run well over a hundred bucks....not everyone wants to spend the extra money.
