Ugh….another<\/em> Kingston Line station?! Haven’t we done enough of them yet??? Yeah, sadly, I still have this and a few others to publish. So, here’s Hanson. If I sound bored writing these, that’s because I genuinely have little to remark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, as with the other Kingston Line stations, it’s LITERALLY COPY-PASTED. Full level platform? Yep. Parking? Yep. Shelter? Yep. Yellow dot matrix sign? Mhm. Benches? Affirmative. There’s genuinely nothing special- wait, what’s that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THERE’S A STATION HOUSE THAT’S BOARDED UP?! HOLY SHIT! <\/strong>I am not joking when I say this is the most distinct thing out here. That is bad<\/em>. But, hey, it’s something at least! There’s also a grade crossing on Main Street, a Dunks nearby, and even a bus connection! However, much like Abington<\/a>, it’s microtransit. This time, it’s GATRA GO! WOAH! \ud83d\ude2e<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good: It’s your usual Kinston Line affair. Has normal amenities. Full accessibility. Not much to remark.

The bad: It would’ve been cool for the station house to be reactivated for passenger use.

Nearby points of interest: Not much.

Transit connections:
Commuter Rail (Kingston)
GATRA (GATRA GO)

Overall, again, not much to remark. Yeah, sorry.
