Useful tips for train travellers

• For your journey, Amtrak provides Business Class and Coach (Economy Class) seating options. Business Class offers more spacious seating with extra legroom, along with complimentary non-alcoholic drinks. If you choose NJ Transit, the train has Standard Coach seating and a quiet car for a relaxed atmosphere, but there are no upgraded options.
• The main operators for this route are Amtrak (amtrak.com) and NJ Transit (njtransit.com). Be sure to check their websites for the latest schedules and ticket options. If you have time before boarding, explore their various promotions or discounts available for travelers.
• Upon arriving at the Jersey Shore station (either in Long Branch or other nearby stations), you can expect luggage facilities available for short-term storage, but it's best to check with the station directly. There are also restrooms available for your convenience; however, showers are typically not public.
• To reach the city center from the Jersey Shore station, the fastest option is to take the NJ Transit 832 bus, which connects you directly to downtown. Ensure to check the NJ Transit website for specific schedules, as buses run at varying frequencies.
