Tour

Train

36th Street is an average River Line station in terms of design. It has most of the amenities you'd expect. 

Benches

Ramp and platform

Unsigned crossing

In order to leave the platform, you need to cross an unsigned rail crossing, which makes this station inaccessible. 

Parking lot

The roads in and out of this parking lot are very confusing and hard to understand 

Bus Connections

There are two bus connections near here:

419: Riverside to Walter Rand Transportation Center: This bus provides local service along River Road, directly paralelled by the River Line. The 419 runs hourly. 

452 - Cramer Hill-Kroc Center to 36th Street Station: This bus runs in what's almost a loop, providing local bus service to much of Camden. This includes Walter Rand Transportation Center. This bus runs about once every 30 minutes. When you look at it on a map this bus looks incredibly silly. 

Points of Interest Near 36th Street Station

Rail yard

There's very little nearby the station. There's a rail yard, and not much else. The area near this station is un-walkable, so good luck if you wanted to leave without driving out or taking the bus or another River Line train.
