Nice transit center. Metro, commuter rail (VRE), buses, taxis. Much brighter and better looking after the recent renovation. Very convenient.

Pretty nice for a train station. It's a good way to get to DC when on vacation. It wasn't too busy when I went there. Plus, going to DC by train is totally recommended if you want to avoid the rush hour of that area.
