<p>[quote user="oltmannd"]</p> <p>LAUPT is a nice station. But greater than 30th St? Oh, no, no, no, no, no.....</p> <p>In fact, I would pick Penn Station Baltimore and Penn Station Newark over LAUPT. They just exude "traininess" and the journey from Concourse to platform is part of the experience. LAUPT has a lousy journey from waiting room to platform.</p> <p>Trains NAILED this one... [/quote]</p> <p>Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder said the old lady as she kissed the cow.</p> <p>LAUPT does have a long walk to the trains. However, unlike 30th Street, once a passenger is release through the gates, she can usually proceed to her train and board it. </p> <p>At 30th Street, at least on the occasions that I have been there, one has to line-up at the top of the stairs to await release to the platform. Then, after he is released to proceed to the platform, he has to line up again, about where he thinks the car door will be when the train stops. The procedure is awful. </p> <p>Of course, this does not have anything to do with the architecture of the station. Or does it? </p>
