I guess my question is a New Jersey transit question, but I'm not sure. If I have to get to Princeton, NJ, how should I get there: from the Philadelphia or Newark airports? Should I take Amtrak to New York (from Chicago)? If so, then what should I do to get to Princeton?
From PHL:
You can take a Clocker from 30th Street to Princeton Junction (West Windsor) and at Princeton Junction you can take the "Dinky" a one car NJ Transit Electric Train to the town of Princeton itself, which is near the campus if I'm not mistaken.
Or if money is an Issue, you can take the Septa R7 to Trenton and Switch to NJ Transit's Northeast Corridor Line in Trenton.
From NYP:
NJ Transit Northeast Corridor Line to Princeton Junction, and connect to the "Dinky" (Cheaper, but more time)
Or you can take a Clocker, which makes fewer stops to Princeton Junction.
And connect to the Dinky
From EWR (Newark):
NJ Transit Northeast Corridor Line to Princeton Junction, and connect to the "Dinky" (Cheaper, but more time)
Or you can take a Clocker (When Available, but Limited), which makes fewer stops to Princeton Junction.
And connect to the Dinky.
Hope this Helps.
