    Don't wait for your train in the waiting room at night. You'll be surrounded by drunk, smelly bums.

    Don't give the Hobos any money. Most of them just use it for drugs and/or alcohol.

    If you don't like the station, and want to get out a.s.a.p. Then go to your train or bus stop, wait for you train or bus to show up and leave! No one on here cares about you bitching and moaning!!
